February

Moose Hill Farm will be showing “ A Place at the Table” (see trailer here: http://www.magpictures.com/aplaceatthetable/) on  Thursday, January 16th at the farm at 7pm.  Their address is 396 Moose Hill St, Sharon, MA 02067.  There will be a discussion afterward about the role farms can play in alleviating hunger and what efforts Moose Hill Farm was specifically involved in this past season.  It will be moderated by Farm Manager, Molly DellaRoman.  We are asking that participants donate non-perishable goods or bring a $5 donation.  100% of the donations will go to the Canton Food Pantry; one of the food pantries that the farm donates fresh produce to during the growing season.

Here are a few suggestions for this month:
  • CEREAL
