about Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm:

The Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm is a family-friendly site for experiential learning. Spend time with old-fashioned occupations and pastimes, explore nature trails, and enjoy a picnic under the ancient maple trees. Feel what it's like to pump water from a well instead of turning on a tap. Sit in a rocker and look through a stereo viewer instead of watching TV. Find out about archeology by piecing excavated "artifacts" together.

Activities are available for everyone - from preschoolers on up - involving history, archeology, and nature observation. The farm is open on a drop-in basis; some programs require reservations.

Nature walks, family events, and lectures are held at the farm year round. Spencer-Peirce-Little also offers summer camp programs for children ages four and older. contact Kathleen Corcoran for more information [978.462.2634; kcorcoran@historicnewengland.org].

The visitor center houses a museum gift shop offering books, gifts, and local products. The visitor center also features an orientation exhibition, changing exhibition space, and fully-equipped programming space which is available for community use with advance notice.
