The Planters Society of the Argyles The word "Planter" is an Elizabethan term for colonist or settler. The term "New England Planters" refers to the pre-Loyalist settlers who left their New England homes to colonize the area now known as Nova Scotia between 1759 and 1774. This is the heritage that the Planters Society of the Argyles is striving to protect. "New England Planters were here and well established long before the few Loyalist that came later".
