Don Mills: From Forests and Farms to Forces of Change
As recently as 1970, wheat crops were grown at Don Mills - and no small amount, but enough to line Toronto's grocery-store shelves with baked goods. Single-herd milk was also commonplace, thanks to this last vestige of the city's agricultural past. By 1980, it had been paved over, but Scott Kennedy offers a glimpse of the way things used to be.
