Ocean Hour Farm

Utilize marine and climate science, experiential education and leadership development to allow visitors (students, scientists, farmers, partners) to interact closely with the watershed and regenerative stewardship activities through the lens of permaculture practices, to learn to create ecologically sound, socially just, equitable systems for their communities, homes, and organizations.

Ocean Hour Farm is one of the last remaining active farms on the south end of Aquidneck Island. The rugged and rolling coastal pastures and historic stone village provide a unique character to this 43.2 acre bucolic farm. Its mission is to serve as a center for education, scientific research, and demonstration of regenerative agricultural practices. The property is adjacent to the Narragansett Bay, making it an ideal location for highlighting the critical connection between land use and ocean health. The vision of the farm is to provide a living example of regenerative land stewardship – an integrated system where plants, animals, and people heal ecosystems while producing food and fiber for the community.
