Farm Appreciation Night 2013 at Stonewall Farm

Hosted By Monadnock Farm and Community Connection

Farm Appreciation Night is a night of merriment and tribute to the farmers who enable us to eat local, farm-fresh foods throughout the season, contribute to our community, and help preserve the rural feel and agricultural heritage of the beautiful Monadnock Region. This volunteer-run event brings farmers and the broader public together to kick back, eat, drink, and be merry together – and perhaps even dance a little!
