Guided Tour of Caretaker Farm

This is the third in a series of site visits to area Working Lands to meet the people who work them!

Caretaker Farm’s 35 acres are a beautiful mix of cropland, pastures, and woodland tucked into a scenic valley. Two ponds, a vernal pool, and the Green River mark the land, with views of the Taconic Range, Green and Berkshire Mountains in the distance. With pigs, chickens, and a huge variety of crops, this working farm has a rich history, much of it focused on community. It is one of oldest community supported farms in the country, and the Caretaker team is about connecting people to the land via local agriculture.
