Merrymac Farm Sanctuary SHARED HARVEST
September 12, 2026
Come join us! This September, we're gathering at the sanctuary for Shared Harvest, a free community event celebrating the harvest season and the opening of our new Education Room. We'll also share one of Merrymac's daily sustainability practices: repurposing surplus produce into nutritious meals for the animals. Merrymac's Produce Recovery Program works with local grocery partners, including City Market, Hannaford, and Shaw's, to recover fruits and vegetables that no longer meet grocery standards and might otherwise be composted. Volunteers pick up, sort, and prepare the produce, selecting items that are safe and appropriate for different species. Shared Harvest gives guests a chance to take part in this work, learn about farm animal nutrition and see community connection in action.Guests are welcome to bring extra produce from their own gardens to share! Space is limited, and registration is required. Head to our website to sign up! linktr.ee/merrymacfarm
