***********

 

The Village of Bible Hill is located across the Salmon River from the Town of Truro in Colchester County, Nova Scotia. The Village was incorporated in 1953 and today, with a population of over 5,000, Bible Hill is a vibrant, primarily residential community. Although 21 villages are located throughout Nova Scotia, Bible Hill and Tatamagouche are the only two situated in Colchester County.

During the late 1700's and the early 1800's, the ancestors of the Millbrook First Nation lived along the banks of the Salmon River between the Town of Truro and the Village of Bible Hill. This parcel of land was sold in 1855 to the School of Agriculture.

The School of Agriculture evolved into the Nova Scotia Agricultural College. The college is now one of the nation’s leaders in scientific research in the agricultural field. The NSAC occupies a large area in the Village with its' campus, test gardens, and fields. Bible Hill has a unique mix of the urban and rural.

For information concerning economic development in the region, contact CoRDA or the Truro and District Chamber of Commerce.  For visitor information contact the Central Nova Tourist Association. Genealogical and historical data for our community is held at the Colchester Historical Society Museum and Archives.
