Motherwell Homestead

The Motherwell Homestead is a National Historic Site of Canada located just south of the community of Abernethy, Saskatchewan.

[1][2] The site commemorates the life and achievements of William Richard Motherwell, Saskatchewan's first minister of agriculture and federal minister of agriculture for the Mackenzie King government.

The 3.59-hectare (8.9-acre) farmstead, in addition to the main house, includes fields defined by fences and shelter belt shrub and tree lines, and agricultural buildings.

During operational months (May 21 to September 1), livestock, including hogs, cows, and chickens, are on site.

The Friends of the Motherwell Homestead operate a restaurant and gift shop on site.
