Location

Appleton Field is located in Scituate, Massachusetts at 251 Clapp Road, within the Crosbie Family Preserve Conservation. It is in an area known to locals as "The West End." Contrasting with the more famous imagery of Scituate's crashing waves, beautiful beaches, and famous lighthouse, The West End is a heavily wooded area. Winding country roads are dotted with the homes of its residents: from 18th century farmhouses to new construction. The area is known for its idyllic, quieter pace and its popular trail system, including Higgins MacAllister, Bates Lane, Crosbie, and Damon Trails. 

​

Appleton Field Community Garden is a collaborative land stewardship project that cultivates a sense of place, community and ecological well-being, growing visitors' relationship to the land. Our Vision is by using regenerative agricultural practices and study of the natural world we envision fieldwork providing a range of environmental, social, recreational, health and public educational benefits to our local community. We seek partnerships with individuals, community groups and organizations dedicated to creating an integrated and welcoming space to visit, grow and learn environmental literacy.
