Friends of the Central Experimental Farm

About Us

The Friends of the Central Experimental Farm (FCEF) is a volunteer organization helping to care for the Arboretum, the Ornamental Gardens and other public areas of the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Our goals are to preserve, maintain, protect and enhance this beautiful and historic green space, enjoyed by residents and tourists alike. Your FCEF membership, volunteer work and support of FCEF fundraising efforts help us accomplish our goals.

Charity# 11891 3565 RR 0001

National Historic Site

In 1998 the entire Central Experimental Farm was declared a National Historic Site, a place ‘of profound importance to Canada.' These sites 'bear witness to this nation's defining moments.' Read the Central Experimental Farm National Historic Site Management Plan here.

Please note that our physical address is different from our mailing address. We are located on the south side of the NCC Scenic Driveway, west of the Prince of Wales roundabout. Our building #75 is between the Museum (dairy barn) and the Ornamental Gardens.

Our hours are Mon., Tue., Wed., Thu., 9:30am-2:30pm
