HART HOUSE FARM
Located along the scenic Niagara
Escarpment, the 150-acre Hart House
Farm offers a welcome escape from
the city. Engaging programming is often
organized by the Hart House Farm
Committee, and it is available for retreats
and events all year round.
The farmhouse, Ignatieff House, contains
essentials including a kitchen and living
quarters. The property features a maple
sugar bush, cleared fields and a stone
wall constructed entirely without mortar.
A well-trodden path leads to a limestone
palisade and a Finnish-style log sauna
built adjacent to one of three scenic
quarry ponds.
Each year, the Farm Committee hosts a
series of events marking the changes of the
season. In 2018–19, the farm welcomed
over 2,600 guests for various initiatives,
including the land-based Indigenous
Education programming offered in
partnership with the Waakebiness-Bryce
Institute for Indigenous Health at the Dalla
Lana School of Public Health.
