Mike Mackinnon, a ninth-generation farmer in Bath Ontario, whose family roots in the community span generations. He was raised with a deep respect for stewardship, tradition and the land, he carries forward a legacy that has shaped both his livelihood and his personal passions. 

His interest in antiques was inspired by his grandmother, Dorothy Burleigh, who introduced him to the stories and craftsmanship behind the pieces she treasured. She taught him that history is not something we just read about, it is something we can see, touch andpreserve. Through her guidance, Mike developed a deep appreciation for the tangible connection that antiques provide to history. Family members have joked, that he may have been bitten by the antique-collecting bug even more deeply than his grandmother herself.

Mike collects antiques for a multitude of reasons. He enjoys furnishing his home with interesting pieces that bring warmth, beauty and character, and especially pieces that carry local history and individuality. Collecting allows him to study, research and share history in a hands-on and engaging way. He sees each piece as a thoughtful and meaningful investment for future generations to appreciate and enjoy. For Mike, collecting is about stewardship, preserving craftsmanship, honouring our heritage and ensuring that the stories of previous generations continue to be appreciated and shared.
