Logging Camp

This building at King's Landing depicts another aspect of life in rural New Brunswick in late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Once the harvest was in many New Brunswick men and boys left their farms to do a stint as loggers. It was hard and dangerous work but it allowed the men to earn some decent money. This was the kind of building in which the loggers bunked, with many crammed into close quarters.
