Thank You!
Dear all,
We extend our heartfelt gratitude for joining our first Farm to Table event this past Saturday, 8/26. Your participation was instrumental in making this event a resounding success, with an impressive turnout of around 120 attendees.
Despite initial forecasts predicting thunderstorms, we were blessed with a day of radiant sunshine that perfectly complemented the wholesome atmosphere of the day. The combination of nourishing meal, enchanting musical performances, and the picturesque backdrop of the farm created an ambiance that warmed our hearts and souls.
A PLACE
WHERE
YOU CAN BE YOU
We are a “care farm” working with individuals with Autism Spectrum Difference* (ASD)
A “care farm” is a communal place for people of all abilities to participate in farming. Our goal is to maintain and improve participants’ physical and mental health by offering farming activities including seeding, watering, delivering farm products, and enjoying the grown produce.
*We use “difference” instead of “disorder” as we believe Autism should not be looked at as a deficit or a shortcoming. By using “Difference” we acknowledge that those on the spectrum have different ways of communicating, socializing, and approaching situations.
WE LOVE VOLUNTEERS!
Join us on the farm!
Looking for a fun way to get fresh air and sunshine, meet new people, or learn organic farming? Everyone is welcome to join the volunteer days held currently at both our Sudbury farm and our Randolph farm. Volunteer work is primarily farm chores including seeding, weeding, etc and changes with the seasons and the day.
The farm address: 800 N Main St. Randolph MA

Being at PLANET Boston’s farm made me feel relaxed and my son was so happy to run around the field, water the plants, and pick tomatoes.
Parent of a child with ASD
PLANET Boston’s pilot program has been such a great opportunity for my son to be social with others in the community while learning about farming skills. We particularly appreciated that he was able to take things at his own pace. Not to mention the farm is a beautiful place to be!
