Farms in the Township that were in the same family for 100, 150 or 200 years (as of 2016) were eligible for designation under this program as Legacy Farms. In total, fifty farm properties in the Township were approved with an official certificate recognizing the award, and, optionally, a sign (see photo). A complete list of the designated properties is found in the brochure of Legacy Farm names. Some of these farms are identified on the Community and Culture Map. Tay Valley Township partnered with the Township of Drummond/North Elmsley on this project.
