I’ve been to the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village before last year during my trip through historic Alberta, but at the time I didn’t want to include this grain elevator in my series. It seemed somewhat artificial and staged moving something and arranging them wherever. I had a change of heart this year and thought that eventually, curated museums might be the only way that future generations can see wooden grain elevators. This one is very well taken care of and maintained. Hopefully it’ll last. I do appreciate people taking the time and effort to preserve these prairie icons.
Scenic photos of various historic wooden grain elevators found in Alberta that were a part of daily life in early Western Canada. I had travelled to these locations taking photos and experiencing the small towns that they were a part of. Wooden grain elevators were once common across the prairie provinces, but are now rather scarce as they have largely been replaced by large concrete grain terminals. Grain elevators were the heart of their communities and are slowly disappearing due to age, fire and neglect. Some of the grain elevators shown have already burnt down or were demolished.
