Pratt Farm

Marshfield's Pratt Farm offers 34 acres of conservation land along both the South River and Zenas Brook. A half-mile of trails winds through the woods and wetlands here, crossing a few small bridges along the way, and it is a nice, quiet option if you are looking for a shorter walk in this part of town.

History

Marshfield residents voted to acquire the Pratt property at special Town Meeting in 2012. Although the history for this property is not well-documented it is clear this is a house with many historic touches. It includes a large barn.
