Self-guided Walking Tours at Watson Farm

This event is posted on behalf of Historic New England. Registration is required. Please register here.

Today, this 265-acre working farm is managed using innovative, sustainable practices that continue the tradition of pastoral husbandry, raising heritage Red Devon cattle and multi-colored sheep. Explore this 265-acre property, which today is a sustainable working farm.

During open hours, take a self-guided walking tour on up to 2.5 miles of easy to moderate trails, participate in an outdoor workshop, explore farm fields with grazing livestock, stroll along the shore, and view seasonal farm activities. The farmers grow hay and sell livestock to other farms, and produce wool products available at our farm. The 1796 house, still used as the farmers’ residence, may be viewed from the exterior only.
