Nova Scotia Gem and Mineral Show Review
The combination of fossils and semiprecious stones makes Parrsboro a natural place to hold the Nova Scotia Gem and Mineral Show during the third weekend of August. In addition to dozens of exhibitors, the show includes themed demonstrations and geological field trips. There are even experts on hand to identify any treasures you turn up.
