The setting of the story is a fox farm in the countryside. The narrator's father raises silver foxes in pens on the farm and then kills them, skins them, and sells their pelts.

Although it is never directly stated that the farm is located in Canada, the narrator does say that her father sold pelts to Hudson's Bay Company and Montreal Fur Traders, two companies located in Canada.
