Tomaquag Valley Farm, Bradford Meadowburg Farm, Richmond

In 2005, the James family of Tomaquag Valley Farm, working with the Hopkinton Land Trust, placed a conservation easement on 75 acres of their farm in Bradford. They are upgrading their
facilities to ensure continued success in producing high quality milk at their farm. Barry, Ruth, along with their children Barry Jr. and Brenda, work hard to continue the family legacy for future generations.

Picturesque Meadowburg farm, nestled in the woods behind Richmond school, welcomes you with beautiful flowers and fields. Home to 100+ Holstein, Jersey, and Guernsey dairy cows, this land has been farmed for more than 300 years. The Kenyons have been faithful stewards of their farm since the 1950s. Currently operated by Francis, Rita and Connie, the family works very hard to produce fresh, quality milk.
Escobar's Highland Farm, Portsmouth Cottrell Homestead, West Kingston

In 2005, Louis and Jane Escobar, with the help of the Aquidneck Land Trust, placed a conservation easement on 75 acres of land that has been farmed since the 1700s. In so doing, the Escobars are now able to ensure their cows have a home forever. The Portsmouth community, which has come to love this farm, can see the care and devotion put into producing this quality milk.
Escobar's Highland Farm

In 1900, Caleb Cottrell settled in West Kingston, starting a tradition that still remains today. On Cottrell Homestead, you'll find fields of corn and acres of hay
and 100 head of Ayrshire and Holstein cattle. The Cottrell family is nationally known and respected for their quality herd, winning many awards. Today, Oliver Cottrell oversees the farm with his sons Glen and Matthew, along with his grandson Caleb, and hopes one day to turn Cottrell Homestead over to the next generation to continue this family farming tradition.
Dutra Farm, Jamestown

Twins Megan and Morgan are just two of the 100+ cows enjoying fresh pasture and breathtaking scenery on Jamestown’s Dutra farm. Farmed for over 300 years, this land has been home to the Dutra family since the early 1900’s. Today, Joseph and Jessie Dutra own and operate the farm. Their son, Joey Jr., born in 2002, is the 4th generation to cross the threshold of their barn. In keeping with family tradition, the Dutras work hard to produce fresh quality milk the way nature intended.
