Macdonald Farm closed to visitors this summer due to construction of new Community Engagement Centre
㽶Ƶ’s Macdonald Campus Farm is embarking on an ambitious project to renovate the century old dairy barn into a new centre to welcome visitors to the world of food production. The only operating dairy farm on the island of Montreal, the Macdonald Campus Farm, welcomes school visits during the months of May and June only.
A friend realized his life’s dream through one of the generous programs offered by the [Macdonald] campus of 㽶Ƶ in Saint Anne-de-Bellevue…
Macdonald campus, therefore, is a God-send.
City TV's morning show, Breakfast Television, spent an early morning on the Macdonald Campus Farm to hear about McGill's agriculture programs and try to learn some farm skills. Visits were made to the Dairy Barn, the Horticulture Centre, and the high tunnels; reporter Wilder Weir talked with Farm Director Paul Meldrum and Mike Bleho about the various programs offered at Macdonald and the "McGill Feeding McGill" program.
