We visit Green Gables ...









Green Gables, part of Lucy Mayd Montgomery's Cavendish National Historic Site, has become famous as the inspiration for the setting in her classic tale 'Anne of Green Gables'. In real life, this farm was the home of David Jr. and Margaret Macneil, who were cousins of Montgomery's grandfather.

We entered the property through the beautiful stables where there is an exhibition of artifacts from the period as well as some prints of historic photos of farm life of the time.
