We are a regenerative farm and developing FolkSchool committed to the preservation of heirloom species and traditional skills. We specialise in growing mostly herbs and flowers. Our land is protected through the Massachusetts Agricultural Preservation Restriction Program, ensuring a permanent sanctuary for our Gallica roses and heirloom hops in addition to our herbs and flowers.

What We Offer
Herbs & Flowers: Regeneratively grown and wild-harvested botanicals for medicinal, culinary, and craft use.

On Site Herbalist: Community and clinical consultations with a trained herbalist.

FolkSchool & Education: Workshops in permaculture, traditional handcrafts, and folk education.

Community Events: Arts and cultural celebrations tied to the seasons and the agricultural year.

Access: Volunteer opportunities and community handcraft resources.

Coming Soon
We are excited to announce that our on-site farm shop will be opening in 2026! In the meantime, please contact us for consultations or information on our upcoming seasonal events.
