FarmzOnWheelz Exhibit Finds New Home at Ontario Science Centre

Farm & Food Care Ontario announced that it has gifted its $200,000 FarmzOnWheelz exhibit to the Ontario Science Centre (OSC).

“In Canada, this is a one-of-a kind exhibit. The long term vision was always for this display to be in a museum style learning environment with the potential for a large number of urban visitors,” said Sue McLarty, FarmzOnWheelz project coordinator for Farm & Food Care.

The FarmzOnWheelz exhibit was launched in 2009, making its debut at the Canadian National Exhibition. The popular exhibit features interactive components that explain how science and technology relate to agriculture.

“We are eager to have the FarmzOnWheelz exhibit showcased at our venue,” said Dr. Mary Jane Conboy, Director of Science Content and Design for Ontario Science Centre.

Video: Dream Projects Made Real | BX Summer Contest Winner Stories

Three women. Three properties. Three summers that changed everything.

Meet the 2025 Kubota BX Summer Contest winners — and watch what happened when their biggest plans finally had the power to match them.

Akesh transformed her 9.8-acre property in just 3 months — clearing a historic barn, building a cottage garden, and growing vegetable beds for her family. Kathleen rebuilt her yard from the ground up after the 2023 wildfires devastated her property — creating a space where her children could play and grow again. Teresa reclaimed her family's 97-acre Ontario farm — moving topsoil, restoring fields, and honouring her mother's memory one season at a time.

Three dream projects. Three stories of vision, resilience, and hard work. One unforgettable summer with a Kubota BX.

"The BX made everything happen so quick." — Akesh "I feel like I can make a huge difference." — Kathleen "It's a dream come true. The answer to my prayers." — Teresa
