CODMAN COMMUNITY FARM



   The town that I grew up in, and moved back to, has many wonderful qualities and attributes. A nationally recognized contemporary art museum, an Audubon Society farm and preserve, revolutionary war sites, colonial and modern architectural historic buildings , the possibilities go on for the intellectually curios, but the one close to my heart is the Codman Community Farm. 











   I grew up attending the Codman Fair every fall, with vegetable judging, pies, live chickens in crates, the smell of hay, fiddle music, a black smith, hay rides and water balloon fights boys verses girls. A wonderful tradition that I am proud to help uphold, thanks to friends on the board who drew me into the cause little by little. 







   The farm was originally part of the Codman Estate and when Dorothy Codman passed away the barn and acreage was left to the town. The Codman Community Farm was established in 1973 bye citizen who wanted to preserve our agricultural heritage. It was a CSA(Community Supported Agriculture)before there was such a thing as a CSA.

    The farm has been run by a farmer and volunteers since then, and has grown to include community gardens, meat and eggs that are raised on the farm and local milk, cheese and other local goods are sold on site. There is education, lectures, events and fundraisers that are all held in the barn. It is family friendly and a great place for children to learn about the animals and get up close.  




   I'm very happy to be volunteering to help on their landscape and hope to have many future posts about the farm.
