Lincoln is the proud home of two farms that have been in continuous operation since the early 1770s: The Chambers/Russell/Codman Farm and the Flint Farm.
Each farm tells the tale of two very different families—one, Loyalists of great wealth and stature who had others do all the labor, and the other, Patriots who farmed the land themselves.
The Lincoln Historical Society & the Flint Family are collaborating to present:
