Records relating to the regional and national activities of the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick branches of the National Farm Radio Forum

Series contains records related to the operations of the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick Farm Radio Forum branches and their contributions to the the National Farm Radio Forum from 1937-65. Records include pamphlets, scripts, correspondence, memos, newsletters, guides, National Secretaries report, annual reports from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick regions, and minutes from the regional and national meetings and conferences.
Some of the records were created and collected by Longly and C.A. Douglas, as well as regional secretary Rosemary Campbell.
The National Farm Radio Forum was a national rural listening-discussion group project sponsored by the Canadian Association for Adult Education, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and CBC. Initially, this program was a dramatized discussion of farm problems in wartime, arranged in cooperation with the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, and the Canadian Association for Adult Education. Eventually, it evolved into discussions by individuals from various communities across the country. The program was developed by Orville Shugg and Neil Morrison.
