OUR FIRST OPEN FARM DAY IN SOUTHWICK
Our inaugural Southwick Open Farm Day took place on August 20th, 2023 and was a great success! We intend to make this an annual event.
THE 2ND ANNUAL OPEN FARM DAY WILL BE SUNDAY, AUGUST 18th, 2024. MORE INFO COMING SOON!
Thank you to all who participated and visited the farms, to our sponsors and to the farmers in town for their willingness and enthusiasm to be part of what we hope becomes a celebrated tradition in our community!

The goal of Open Farm Day is to build connection, recognition and respect for the work farmers do in our community. Farmers not only grow the food, drinks, and other goods that sustain us, they also contribute to our in-town and regional economy as well help protect open space, which is one of Southwickʼs most valuable assets.
Please buy local whenever you can!
please email us at agcom@southwickma.gov if you would like your southwick farm to be part of farm day 2024
