Discussion: History of Agriculture on PEI
History of Agriculture on PEI
The Environmental Studies Book Club Discussion Series
This winter we will be reading and discussing "Time and a Place: An Environmental History of Prince Edward Island" (2016). Our discussions will probe into past and present environmental changes on PEI, and how and why the Islanders are particularly sensitive to environmental issues and enmeshed in their landscape in a way that is unique among Canadians.
During our third discussion we will talk about the history of agriculture on PEI and will focus on the chapters 鈥淭he Fertile Crescent: Agricultural Land Use on Prince Edward Island, 1861-1971鈥� by Dr. Joshua MacFadyen and 鈥淎griculture and the Environment on Prince Edward Island, 1969-2014: An Uneasy Relationship鈥� by Mr. Jean-Paul Arsenault.
We are thrilled that the authors, Dr. Joshua MacFadyen and Mr. Jean-Paul Arsenault, will join our discussion.
