During WWII, Massey-Harris Co. Ltd. created a movement called the Harvest Brigade to harvest over 1,000,000 acres of wheat for the war effort. Collections coordinator Rachel Clendenin will discuss the Harvest Brigade movement, Massey-Harris’ part in the program, and the effects it had at that time and for the future of agriculture. This event is FREE and open to the public.
