The farm

The farm at Nubanusit comprises a five acre area with gardens and three hoop houses, as well as pasture land. The Farm Team handles the land use agreements with the ventures that occupy it.

​Currently, ventures in which community residents may participate include the following:​
  • Chicken Club (for eggs)
  • Pastured Meat Group (beef, lamb, chickens, and ducks)​
  • Permaculture Club
Vision
Nubanusit Neighborhood & Farm has a reciprocal and complementary relationship: neighbors nurture the farm and the farm offers the neighborhood food, beauty, and connection to each other and the land.

Mission
Nubanusit Neighborhood & Farm (NN&F) will continue incremental development of the farm by:
  • Implementing organic and sustainable practices to improve our land
  • Allowing the interests & skills of neighbors to guide its development
  • Promoting individual and community well-being with our work and play​
  • Offering a healthy diet and lifestyle
  • Providing opportunities to recast conventional food production/distribution to adapt to our community life
  • Providing opportunities for neighbors and others who work with us to learn about farming
  • Reaching out to the larger community with food donations and learning opportunities
​
Tenant farmer
Nubanusit leases our farmland and supports the operation of a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) vegetable farm. Many neighbors purchase shares in the CSA and enjoy weekly harvests from spring through fall. All neighbors share in the support of the farm through our monthly dues for expenses such as soil amendments, equipment maintenance, and invasives control. 
Nubi River Farm
Committed to the health of the soil, plants, and people.

We are a Certified Organic small diversified farm in Peterborough, NH. At Nubi River Farm we are committed to the health of our soil, plants and people. For us, this means taking great care of the land with minimal tillage, growing organically, the use of crop and animal rotation, cover crops and having fun while we work. We grow on a little over two acres and have the use of three hoop houses where most of our tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and beans are grown. If you have questions about our growing practices please ask!
