Location Details

Driving & Parking Directions

There are several driveway entrances onto the property* – each leading to a different entity/location, including other organizations' barns, so it is important that you use New Entry’s designated driveway to help maintain our neighborly relations and end up in the right spot. 

If you are driving along Cabot Street, you will start to see signs for Moraine Farm, keep driving! Our entrance is further down the street (across from houses on Cabot Street numbered 794 and 774). There is a red fire hydrant just before our driveway entrance, and a large white sign at the driveways entrance that says, "New Entry."

Follow the long driveway around the farm, along the fence. You'll pass the big red historic barn on your right. Continue following signs to our designated parking area that's in front of the brown Ag Barn.

Parking is only allowed in our designated gravel area, not in front of any of the buildings. 

Please note: This is a working farm property with unpaved paths. 

*Moraine Farm is located on colonized Pawtucket and Massa-adchu-es-et (Massachusett) traditional territory.
