SUMMARY:Island of Hope: A Master Plan for Newton Community Farm
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered why Newton Community Farm looks the way it does? Or how is it possible that a 2.25-acre farm can provide produce to an 80-share summer CSA\, a 50-share late fall CSA\, farm stand\, farmers’ market\, and food pantry donations\, all while offering educational programs? \nMuch of the Farm’s layout today owes directly to the Master Plan for the Farm\, created by founding board member Ted Chapman. Building on principles from biointensive agriculture and permaculture\, Ted created a vision for the Farm becoming the center of a renaissance of “gardening” in the “Garden City.” Come spend an evening with Ted and Farmer Greg\, learning about this early vision for the Farm\, and how the Farm today both follows and departs from it.
