Just Farmin' is a very nice mural that shows farming at haying time from the days of the early settlers. Note the sickle being used to cut the hay, once cut it was loaded on a horse drawn wagon.
There is an old saying, "Make hay while the sun shines".
Rock Creek is best known for their annual Fall Fair since 1946. Over the years Rock Creek Fall Fair has grown to become the second largest agricultural fair in the British Columbia interior.This is actually quite an impressive feat for a community as small as Rock Creek, with a population somewhere under 400.
The gold rushes began at Rock Creek in 1859 and throughout the area over the next 10 years. With the sudden influx of more than 5,000 miners, Governor James Douglas quickly ordered the rapid construction of the now famous Dewdney Trail.
