    ​Road trip with your family out to Abernethy and visit the Motherwell Homestead National Historic Site to meet farm animals and discover prairie life in the 1900s. Have a blast while exploring the home and farm of W.R. Motherwell and discover his influence on the development of agriculture in western Canada. Join staff at work in the fields, caring for the many farm animals or working in the old stone house. Enjoy a wagon ride and smell the fresh-cut hay. Indulge in the freshly made flavours at the Off The Beaten Path Café and take a stroll along the wetland trail. Step out of the hustle and come back to the farm. Don't miss the live farm animals, Xplorers for kids, the Explora Tour App, discovery booklets, many fun photo opportunities and Children's Day Camps in July and August (by reservation only). Visitor Centre, century-old fieldstone house, barn and interpretive signage. Follow Motherwell on Twitter at #MotherwellNHS.

    Please plan ahead and check the Parks Canada​ website​ for the most up-to-date information on hours of operation and what to expect when you arrive.​​
