Annually, the Friends of Canonchet Farm, Narrow River Preservation Association, and the South County Museum, with generous support from Trio Restaurant, sponsor the winter speaker series On Pettaquamscutt: Presentations on the Environment and the History of the Narrow River Watershed.
Winter 2019 presentations:
Sunday, March 31, 2019 1-3pm Narrow River Preservation Association will present: “Waves of Blue, Waves of Green” by Jane Hennedy, Site Manager of Historic New England’s Casey Farm
Casey Farm stretches from Narragansett Bay to the Narrow River. The talk traces centuries of changes to the land and compares it to its sister, Watson Farm. Their shared mission of historic preservation, landscape conservation, producing local food, and innovative educational programs comes through when following the seasonal rhythms of the farms in pictures and stories.
The presentations take place on selected Sundays from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. at the Maury Loontjens Memorial Library, 35 Kingstown Road, Narragansett.
After each event, participants are encouraged to continue the conversation at Trio Restaurant, 15 Kingstown Road, Narragansett.
