Codman Community Farms

Club Codman is finally here, this Saturday, May 16th, at 8pm! There’s still time to snag a ticket for one of the most anticipated nights of the year – our annual adults-only costume dance party and fundraiser for the farm. We’ll have two amazing DJs, photo booth-style pictures, and a Thanksgiving turkey for this year’s costume contest winner. What makes this night so special is all of you, the people who show up year after year bringing your energy, creativity, and dancing shoes (or not) and making it feel like the best kind of community gathering. Costumes are encouraged but not required – come however you’ll have the most fun. We can’t wait to see you on the dance floor! Tickets available on our website.

Join us in the Codman courtyard next Sunday, April 12th, from 4:30-6:30pm for an evening of BBQ fresh from the kitchen, live music by the Honey Steelers, and (hopefully) some beautiful spring weather! We’re making smoked BBQ ribs, maple brown butter cornbread, tangy maple coleslaw, Boston baked beans, and chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches. BYOB and stay to enjoy your dinner around the fire pits or swing by and take your meal to go! Pre-orders required (all items available à la carte) - order deadline Thursday, April 9th.

Lincoln Dark Skies Committee Survey Invitation The Dark Skies Subcommittee of Lincoln’s Planning Board is interested in working with the Town and town officials to develop policies and recommendations designed to promote environmentally responsible outdoor lighting. The purpose of this anonymous survey is to explore the level of understanding that residents have regarding Lincoln’s Dark Skies Initiatives and where there may be gaps in knowledge. Each section of the survey is brief and designed to assist in the development of educational materials which will be provided to the community for future planning. Please fill out the survey - link in bio!

As promised, the day has arrived. Piglets are here! Spring has sprung! We have been blessed with nine healthy piglets in the first litter and we have 5 more litters to go! Visiting the farm to see the piglets… The farm is free and open to the public. The piglets are located in the lower barn and signage will be posted shortly to direct folks to the proper area. The farm is MUDDY this time of year, so dress farmy! PLEASE - be quiet when visiting the pigs, do NOT touch any pigs, do not feed the pigs or enter any livestock areas and please be aware that momma pigs are very sensitive to noise and activity. The piglets can sometimes be difficult to see due to the nature of our barns, and the piglets are young and not spry enough yet to be running around. Soon enough the piglets will be darting too and fro and easier to see, we promise! #communityfarm #sustainableagriculture #localfarm #piglets

Join us for a special Pizza in the Pavilion on Saturday, March 14th! Codman’s Education Pavilion is adjacent to our Sugar Shack so we’ll be offering a maple themed pizza experience. This evening isn’t just about the delicious wood fired pizza you’ll be enjoying for dinner - the evaporator will be cranking in the Sugar Shack and our resident expert will be there feeding the fire and explaining the sugaring process. Codman Chef Tillie is whipping up some tasty salads to accompany your pizzas so come hungry. The evening is BYOB but cups and warm cider will be provided. March is still a chilly month in New England so to ensure your pizza will be warm - we are offering 30 minute pick-up windows. That doesn’t restrict your timing for the evening - come early (stay late), hang out, see the sugaring process (sample some tasty syrup!) and, enjoy the night sky. Pizzas are 12 inches and for this evening we will be offering a cheese pizza ($26) and a maple bacon pizza with caramelized onions ($30). Price includes the sugar shack experience, salads and warm cider.

Thanks to everyone who came out for our end of season layer hen catch! We had over 50 volunteers who made quick work of bringing our laying hens home for the winter. Codman livestock staff led the catch, as seen in the photo above with Aimee giving the lowdown to the crowd on how to catch the hens. Come visit them back at the farm! Thanks again to everyone who came out for the night of fun! #communityfarm #communityfarming #codmancommunityfarms #sustainableagriculture #sustainablefarming #sustainablefarm #localfarmers #localfarm #farmeducation #pasturedeggs #pasturedpigs #pasturedcows #pasturedchicken #localproduce #chickencatching
