WHAM – Swords and Plowshares

Runs November 2, 2024 – February 20, 2025

Critical to Canada’s war effort was the battle on the “Industrial Front” fought by the factories of the nation and no manufacturer modeled this better than the Cockshutt Plow Company.

The Waterford Heritage & Agricultural Museum in partnership with the Canadian Industrial Heritage Centre presents Swords & Plowshares Revisited to highlight the contributions of the Cockshutt Plow Co. and the Cockshutt family in three distinct periods of world conflict. With a Second World War workforce comprised largely of women, their products served in the farmer’s field, the battlefield, and took flight in combat.

Opening Gala on Sunday, November 3 from 2pm to 4pm.

Exhibit Runs from November 2024 through February 2025
