The Schmidt Dalziel Barn

There are very few buildings in Canada that survive 200 years. And of that small number, only a handful are barns. This amazing barn is one of Canada's oldest and rarest barns.

The barn stands here today as a tribute to the settlers who came before, who knew how to build sturdy, functional structures essential to their survival. It stands here today because of the rich woodlands that provided the firs growth white pine in abundance. It stands here because of the generations of a hard working farming family who used it well, and kept it sound, and shred it with us all.
