Green World

In this part of Canada there are many farms which grow bountiful crops for local and world markets. One farm is situated beside a creek where I used to hike as a young boy.

The creek begins in a vast swamp. On the shores of the pond there used to be a summer day-camp. It was almost 45 years ago when I used hike along the shores and fish from the dam which used to be behind me in this photo.

Next to the creek the vast farming estate is approached through a green canyon.

In the traditional way of Ontario farms, there is a garden, a barn, and a house.

A sacred shrine holds paintings created to honour famous residents of the estate including:
Bessy the Cow

Howard the Chicken . . .

And Friends

In the grounds of the estate the wild inhabitants go about their business of making honey in their tree-houses.
