This 18.5 acre property has been farmed by non-profits working to address local food security issues since 1987. Originally farmed by Haley House Inc., the farm is now managed by Noonday Farm, Inc., a nonprofit founded by Beth Ingham and Bob Jennings to serve residents of Winchendon and Gardner. The farm provides free organic food to those in need and offers educational programs in growing healthy food and sustainable living practices. 90% percent of what Noonday Farm produces is donated to local organizations that provide food for families experiencing poverty and food insecurity.

Public Access
