Lex Farm Harvest Celebration




When: Saturday, October 22nd
Time: 10 am – 12:30 pm 
Where:  Lexington Community Farm  52 Lowell Street in Lexington, MA next to the Arlington Reservoir.

We will be holding a celebration of the fall harvest on the farm with food samples, live music, tours, kids’ activities and fun for the whole family!  Free parking at the Arlington Reservoir, next door.
Meet our farmers, Tim and Elena, take a tour of the farm, enjoy live musical entertainment from two bands, the Harmonators and the Sorry Honeys, learn about volunteer opportunities, watch vegetable races and visit the kids’ activity and education tables, nibble on tastes of the harvest and enjoy great shopping in the farm stand of produce as well as other products.  In addition, the private farm behind us, Silk Fields Farm, will be open for goat, chicken, rabbit and now alpaca viewing.

The farm is about 7.5 acres with a small farm stand, a glass greenhouse and a hoophouse. The Town of Lexington owns the property and is leasing it to Lexington Community Farm Coalition (LexFarm) to operate it as a community farm. It is on the site of the former Busa Farm, operated by the Busa family for many years.
