Hunt Hill Farm Trust

Hunt Hill Farm Trust

The trust is devoted to protecting this piece of New England agricultural history - the buildings, the stone walls, the fields - and the cultural legacy of Ruth & Skitch Henderson, the founders who have lovingly maintained this site and brought ‘new life to old barns.’ It continues their traditions of education, conservation, artisanry and excellence in the Cooking School, the Skitch Henderson Museum, the Hunt Hill Farm Land Preserve, the Gallery and the Silo Store.

We hope you enjoy our work.

Please support this 72-year tradition of trusted historical writing and the volunteers that sustain it with a donation to American Heritage.
