Description:

We are a nonprofit community farm located on the historic Angino farmstead in Newton. We strive to benefit the community by

  • Providing locally-grown produce through our CSA, our farm stand, and Newton Farmers' Markets
  • Educating the public about the sustainable use of land and other natural resources through hands-on classes, workshops, and drop-in farm hours
  • Preserving Newton's last working farm as a historic site and valuable open space
  • Connecting gardening enthusiasts through events and networking opportunities

A portion of the food grown on site is donated to people in need through the Newton Food Pantry.
