12.01.2022 Our new calendar for 2018 is now available and focuses on the history of Canning Mills. The timber Industry in the Hills district formed the foundation for the beginning of the settlement of the earlier settlers and their families. We set our focus in this edition on the history of Canning Mills, and the important part the mill played in the development of the timber Industry. We have selected a series of photographs, which demonstrate the activity and lifestyle of the settle...ment of Canning Mills and the men and women who strived to build an industrious community. The calendars will make a great Christmas gift and cost $10.00 + $2.50 postage. All proceeds from the sale help to fund the fantastic work the PBHG does through out the year. Support your local community!
