Now owned by the city and operated by the non-profit Newton Community Farm, Inc., the farm preserves a valuable cultural and historical landscape and serves as a model for sustainable agriculture in our community. Join Newton Community Farm board member and landscape designer Ted Chapman for a talk about what this special piece of land can tell us about the history of Newton and the vital role of farming in our lives.
