Woodlands Farm

Woodlands Farm , Old Renwick Road, near Blenheim. This farm was originally part of Mr. Thomas Redwood's well known property, and was acquired by the present owner in five sections of various sizes. Its total area is 165, acres, and the greater part of this is rich, agricultural land. Paul's Island, an area of 128 acres, situated between the old bed and the new course of the Opawa river, is embraced in the farm; a small portion of which is light and stony. “Woodlands” is devoted almost entirely to the cultivation of wheat and oats, and some excellent crops are grown.
