Our History
In 1908, the Canadian Pacific Railway initiated the construction of a Demonstration and Supply Farm in Strathmore, Alberta, as an integral part of their initiative to entice settlers to the prairies. Over time, this farm flourished and gained significant recognition as an "agriculturist mecca," solidifying its status as a showcase for the agricultural accomplishments of western Canada.
About The Farm
The aim of Legacy Farm is to create an engaging and immersive experience for visitors by showcasing the multifaceted aspects of agriculture throughout time. With its diverse array of offerings, the destination will captivate individuals with a deep interest in the agricultural industry, as well as those seeking to broaden their understanding of its past, present, and future.
Our Vision
The Plan
The project team led by MVH Urban Planning & Design has created a draft Area Structure Plan that has been given an initial review by all Town departments. The next step in the process is to undertake community consultation on the draft Area Structure Plan (ASP). Following any revisions to the ASP, it will then be provided to the Town for final review and undergo the Town Council approval process that includes a public hearing and three readings of Council.
