Help Shape the Future of The Fraga Farm!
Imagine a place where families and friends can garden together, new farmers can launch small farm businesses, neighbors gather in a restored historic barn, and fresh, locally grown food is available year-round, all right here in Taunton.
That’s the vision for The Fraga Farm, the City’s historic 15-acre property on Tremont Street.
The Taunton Agricultural Commission is developing a phased plan to restore and revitalize the property. With $45,000 already secured to help launch the project, and additional funding opportunities being pursued, now is the time for the community to help shape its future.
The concepts in development include:
- Community gardens
- Incubator plots for beginning farmers
- A restored barn as a community gathering place and year-round local farm stand
- Nature trails, pollinator habitat, and opportunities for Farm-to-School education
We want your feedback. Whether you’re a neighbor, gardener, conservation advocate, or simply someone who cares about improving Taunton, your voice matters and we encourage you to join the conversation at our upcoming planning meeting and volunteer work days!
Next Farm Planning Meeting:
Thursday, November 5th, 6:00 PM
Silver City Conference Room, Taunton City Hall
Farm Site Cleanup & Volunteer Days:
Saturday and Sunday, November 14 & 15th, daily volunteer opportunities starting at 9AM and continuing into the afternoon. More details coming soon!
