Donate to the Steckle Heritage Farm

You Can Help!

Steckle Heritage Farm is maintained and operated by the J. Steckle Heritage Homestead Charity which was established in 1988 by Dr. Jean Steckle. As a charity, we depend on our program revenues, facility rentals and support from donors just like you! By doing this, you help to maintain the farm as a welcoming, active place that engages the community in connecting with agriculture, food production, and the region’s cultural heritage.

You can donate directly to Steckle Heritage Farm using our Canada Helps Impact page.

Thank you so much for your support!
