Are You The Owner?

about Brookwood Farm:

The Blue Hills Reservation is the backdrop for scenic Brookwood Farm. The 70-acre site, once a working farm dating back to the 17th century, is a great spot to pursue non-urban pleasures. The last owner of the property willed it to the DCR in 1994. It was his hope that it would one day be the site of the governor's mansion.

Some of the many things to do on the farm include walking and hiking, bird watching, participating in special events sponsored by the Department of Conservation and Recreation, maple sugaring, and picnicking.

getting there:

From Route 93 south/128 north or Route 128/I-95 south: Take Exit 3 Canton/Milton to Houghton's Pond/Ponkapoag Trail. Follow signs for Houghton's Pond and take left at 3-way stop onto Blue Hill River Rd. Farm is on one-half mile down on the left.
