Land's Sake

A nonprofit community farm in Weston, MA — at 90 Wellesley Street — running a working farm and forest alongside education programs that connect people to the land. Part of the Boston-western-suburbs land-protection ecosystem that keeps working farmland intact under contemporary housing pressure.

What they do

Land’s Sake is a nonprofit community farm at 90 Wellesley Street in Weston, MA. The model joins a [[farm|working farm]] and forest with land-based education programs — kids’ programs, school partnerships, volunteer work-on-the-land. The organization functions as both a producer (selling vegetables and forest products) and a stewardship institution (running the land for community benefit rather than profit extraction).

Why it’s listed

The Boston western suburbs — Weston, Wayland, Sudbury, Lincoln, Concord — have the most acute housing pressure on working farmland in the Northeast. Land’s Sake is one of the institutional answers to “how does any farm survive in a town where a vacant acre is worth a million dollars to a developer.” [[directory|The directory]] surfaces these stewardship operations because they’re upstream of every [[farm-to-table|farm-to-table]] dinner in the city.

Bioregional fit

Land’s Sake is part of the [[greater-boston]] western-suburbs land-protection ring alongside [[sudbury-valley-trustees]], the regional Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources easement program, and [[siena-farms-south-end]]‘s Sudbury operation — all of them working different layers of the same problem.
