☀️ What a summer of adventure and discovery!

From local history and birdwatching to survival skills, our Wolfville summer campers have been learning, exploring, and making memories with us at the Randall House Museum.

🎬 This video is a little nod to The Odyssey—because every great hero has a journey ahead of them. We hope our little heroes keep exploring, learning, and striving on their own adventures.

Until next summer, remember to have fun and love histories heroes!

Two down, two to go! 🏛️🔨

The Randall House Museum is getting a little TLC, one wall at a time! Take a look at the progress on this year’s exterior repairs and please excuse the construction soundtrack.

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported the museum, whether through donations, helping hands, or simply cheering us on. Every bit of support helps us preserve this special piece of Wolfville’s history. 💛

Summer is almost packed away, but there’s still time for a little museum magic! ✨

Curious about what’s inside? Pop by Randall House Museum before the season slips away. Our hours are on the board—because even museums need a schedule! 😉

Come have a wander, discover something new, and say hello before we close for the season. 🏡💚

Imagine: 1861 - Gold is found about 7 miles from Wolfville. A place called “Little Chester” on the South or “Horton Mountains”. The gold is washed out with pans.

🌿 Our garden is flourishing!

Thanks to the hard work of our wonderful garden committeeand our volunteer Elise, there’s so much growing at Randall House Museum. From Sue’s vegetable beds to our medicinal garden, there’s always something new to discover.

Our vegetable garden also reflects traditional knowledge of growing plants together. Inspired by the Mi’kmaq tradition of companion planting, we have corn growing in the centre, with squash, zucchini and tomatoes growing alongside it. 🌽🍅🎃

And our garden is here to be enjoyed by the community! 🌱 If you’d like to harvest something, just let us know, come say hi, and take a little piece of the garden home with you.

Because food doesn’t just fill the stomach — it nourishes the soul. 💚
