About the Farm
Woodslawn Farm stands as a testament to agricultural heritage in Colrain, Massachusetts, representing seven generations of family farming that has shaped the landscape and community for well over a century. This multigenerational farm has weathered the changes of time while maintaining its commitment to sustainable farming practices and deep connection to the land that has nurtured countless families.
The farm's approach to raising beef reflects a philosophy rooted in environmental stewardship and quality. Their cattle graze on pastures that have been cultivated and cared for across generations, spending spring, summer, and fall seasons on these historic fields. When winter arrives, the animals are sustained with hay harvested from their own land during the warmer months, creating a complete cycle of sustainability that honors both the animals and the environment.
Woodslawn Farm has also been home to literary talent, having been the residence of poet Carol Purington, who passed away in December 2020. Carol's deep connection to farm life inspired numerous collections of haiku and poetry, including works like Farm Song and A Drift of Birdsong, which captured the essence of rural life and the changing seasons. Her legacy continues through posthumously published works that celebrate the intersection of agriculture, family, and the natural world that defines places like Woodslawn Farm.
