Description
Cogswell’s Grant has been a working coastal farm since 1636. During this walking tour, guests will join site manager Kristen Weiss through the fields and down to the salt marsh, learning about the evolving techniques and crops of the families who lived and farmed here over the centuries, and how Historic New England today balances historic agricultural practices with recreation and conservation.
