A huge shoutout and thank you to for generously donating coffee and pastries to BFS for our August “Coffee Crew” last weekend! On the first Saturday of each month from 9am-12pm, BFS hosts “Coffee Crew” for volunteers at the farm. Coffee crew is a time for volunteers and staff to break together to enjoy coffee and treats. It’s been so fun to partner with you ! We love having your staff at the farm, and we are happy to collect your coffee grinds for our compost, and we love getting to share coffee and treats with you! Here’s to coffee, shared moments, and time well spent! ☕️🥐 Thank you!

Meet our new Kids Harvest Club Lead Volunteer, Deborah!
We are delighted to welcome Deborah to BFS as a leader for our Kids Harvest Club this year. She is a graduate with wonderful applicable experience with both adults and children. Deborah was a teaching assistant for biology courses at Brown, a job manager for Brown University’s Environmental Program House and co-op, and she also works for the BrownU Outdoor Leadership Training (BOLT) program . Through her experience there, she says she has found a love for making things because she enjoys the challenge of “putting simple things together in a way that makes them something completely new and special.” Furthermore she says “in my mind, that is the aim of teaching: connecting people to create shared knowledge, and with it, shared experiences and histories.”

Deborah will be with us for the summer through mid-August. She will then travel to Czechia to teach English as a Fulbright fellow after which she will return to Providence to pursue a Master of Arts in Teaching with a focus on biology.

She’s excited to be a part of BFS and believes it is the perfect place to combine her wide range of interests while contributing to a community that is meaningful.

Say hi to Deborah at Kids Harvest Club on Tuesday from 5-6pm!

Radyn, picture above, first visited BFS on a 2nd grade field trip to the farm to learn about pollinators this past May. Fast forward to last week when she returned to BFS to serve our community as a part of her pageant entry for Little Miss RI! Radyn needed to fulfill so many service hours and we are so thrilled that she wanted to serve at BFS!

Her dad, Michael (a local chef), said to keep an eye out for her official press release. Congratulations, Radyn! We are so happy to have you as a part of our farm community.

BTown Farm School

The Barrington Farm School is a not for profit educational organization, specializing in teaching and outreach relating to small scale market gardening practices, including local food scrapping and composting, summer farm stand business, and soil health initiatives using cover cropping and native habitat restoration. The Vendituoli Farm, a 120-year-old farmland sits between Lincoln Avenue and Federal Road at Middle Highway. It is the last farm remaining in Barrington, RI. Now, we are a protected farm thanks to the generosity of the community and the Barrington Conservation and Land Trust.

Community support continues to be imperative to our farm for growing, supplies, farm stand, structures, cultivating the woodland habitat to reach students and community members of all ages. The open space has beekeeping, fresh food tastings, student environmental groups, teachers, artists, nature studies and conservation practices.
