Join this talk facilitated by Orleans Conservation Trust with speakers from the Town of Orleans and local farmers to learn about the evolution of Putnam Farm over time and the many ways it serves the community today. Once farmland and now a conservation-restricted property, Putnam Farm brings together farming, wildlife habitat, climate resilience, and recreation. Learn how community partnerships have helped shape the property, and how ecologically minded, organic farming can thrive on conservation lands.
This talk will be paired with an upcoming guided walk at Putnam Farm (October 21st), where participants can see these ideas in practice at the farm. Click here to register for the walk.
This lecture will take place at the Snow Library, 67 Main Street, Orleans. Doors open at 6:00pm, and the lecture starts at 6:30pm.
