Weston Historical Society is pleased to announce that environmental historian and Land’s Sake co-founder Brian Donahue will be our guest speaker at the 2023 WHS Annual Meeting. For his lecture “Weston Agriculture 101: Adaptation and Change,” Brian look at farming in Weston beginning in the late 1600s, when Watertown residents grazed their cattle here, to land divisions and the first farms, the impact of railroads, growth of market gardening, Marian Case’s Hillcrest “model farm,” post-World War II suburban growth, and today’s Land’s Sake community farm. He will conclude with an introduction to the New England Food Vision and the role of suburban and urban farming.
