Support Farming for the Future: Help Protect Morrill Dairy Farm
The Forest Society is fortunate to be working again with the Morrill Family of Penacook to conserve the land base that supports their fourth-generation farm, located along the main stem of the Merrimack River just north of Sewall’s Falls and the Concord-Penacook border. Started by Rob Morrill’s grandfather in 1925, the Morrill Dairy Farm is approaching its centennial and has provided milk to the Hood plant on North Main Street in Concord for its entire history. We want to protect the land from subdivision and development while allowing for agricultural uses and recreation, including fishing, hunting, and paddling. To complete this project, we must raise a total of $263,000, including at least $100,000 in private donations.
