You will find some very old pieces of agricultural equipment on display on the grounds of the Le Mernois Vignoble in St-Thomas-de-Joliette.
To the best of my knowledge there are two horse drawn cultivators and a single-bottom one-way plow. I don't know what was the use of the other pieces of machinery.
Use or Purpose of Equipment: The horse-drawn cultivator was drawned by a single horse, a mule or ox while the operator walked behind guiding and wrestling his unwieldy implement. The single-bottom one -way plow was used to dig deep into the soil and turn it over.
Approximate age: 80 years old approximately
