Mural on the side of 64 Holland St. West. It depicted the farmers of the Holland Marsh. This mural was painted in 1995 as part of the Downtown Revitalization Project. It was painted over in the fall of 2016 due to vandalism, and only Gwilly the Carrot remains.

"The annual Carrot Fest in Bradford is a longtime summer tradition. Clockwise from above: Strolling accordion player Klaus Wehrenberg entertains; Sofia Gomez, 3, enjoys a day out; Gwilly, the mascot poses with a fan for a 'selfie'; the crowds enjoy the vendors on Holland Street; Hilary Whittaker (left) and Jane Pound, owners of the Bradford School of Dance, have some fun. To see more photographs from the event, go to thetopic.ca."
