Description

Join the Rhode Island Historical Society for a member-exclusive tour of Ocean Hour Farm, a center for education and scientific research on regenerative land management based in Newport, RI. Together, we will explore the farm's integrated plant and animal systems, discuss permaculture design, and connect land-based stewardship to ocean health. Attendees will leave with next steps on how they can contribute to building healthy soils for healthier seas! 

Directions to Farm:
Ocean Hour Farm is located at 152 Harrison Ave in Newport, RI. Many GPS systems will bring you to our back entrance on Beacon Hill Rd, which is not correct. Stay on Harrison Ave as if you are heading to Fort Adams. You will see the Ocean Hour Farm sign on your left as you approach. When you arrive at the gate, press the “push here” button and it will open. Head down the driveway and you will see the visitor parking lot on your left with overflow parking alongside the roundabout. Once you park, head toward the village and come up the staircase to the left of the bridge. We will meet you there.
