About The Museum
A Farm Like Grandpa’s!
Sunnybrook Farm Museum is a non-profit, charitable organization. Our Mission is
“to promote understanding about rural life in a living farm community in Central
Alberta, 1880-1950s, through preservation and interpretation.” While our vision is
to create “a unique farm museum in the heart of Red Deer where people can learn
about the early history of life in a rural community in Central Alberta.”
Sunnybrook Farm Museum celebrates the early days of Alberta farming. Find your
rural roots as you explore Red Deer’s oldest farm! Imagine the lives of pioneer farm
families - working in the field, milking the family cow in the dairy barn, repairing a
plow in the blacksmith shop, or baking bread in the summer kitchen.
Join us as we travel back in time. Chat with “men at work” in the restoration shop.
Experience the modern conveniences - of 1905 - on a visit to the log house. Try your
hand at feeding chickens and enjoy a wagon ride, special event of demonstration of
lovingly restored farming equipment (seasonal).
