Catching up on Bramble Hill Farm at the present time

Bramble Hill is home to a production farm, Old Friends Farm. It is a home for several households. It is a home to The Open Field Foundation. Its mission is-to encourage and support organic sustainable farming, to encourage and support learning through the natural world in any practical or creative expression.

For years, we have welcomed neighbors to walk here. However, as the years have gone on, and especially because of COVID, the news of a place to walk has spread and spread. And now we simply have too many people walking here.

Our first step to try to manage this will be:
  • No more parking here.
  • We ask of walkers the following-
    • ​Please remember this is a private place, not a public park.
      Please be thoughtful to what happens here. There are people working for their living as farmers. Their work, their safety is a priority at Bramble Hill Farm. What they grow belongs to them, please, no more gleaning or taking of their produce.

  • We ask that all visitors treat this whole property with respect.
    • ​Please walk with awareness of farm vehicles, farm activity, with awareness of other walkers. Walk on the main path and perimeter trail only, staying out of all buildings, practicing mask wearing and social distancing, honoring leave-no-trace behavior, (please pick up the poop of your dog!). Dogs must be on leashes. Please no groups of people coming to meet here.

  • Please look at signs and read the Bramble Hill website each time you visit this property, as changes to access will be updated as needed. Thank you for your understanding as we try to navigate this time.
  • If you have any questions please email us at bramblehillfarm@gmail.com.
