SHERIFF REPORTS SUCCESSFUL HARVEST FESTIVAL

PLYMOUTH— On Saturday, October 1, 2011 the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department held its annual Harvest Festival at the Plymouth County Farm. Hundreds of visitors took part. Check out a few sights from the day.

Our farm staff is made up of six correction officers who are also trained horticulturalists; The officers supervise an inmate crew who raise plants and care for the animals on the 90-acre farm.

The farm is now open year round—providing a greater rehabilitation experience for our inmates.

Inmates are able to work 7-days a week on the farm. The work instills a sense of accomplishment, accountability and lets the men learn what it feels like to put in a hard day’s work. All farm proceeds fund inmate rehabilitation programs on the farm and inside the Correctional Facility.

Find the farm off Rt. 3, exit 5 on Obery Street in Plymouth. The entrance is just prior to the new Plymouth Trial Court.

Open Daily 8am-4pm

74 Obery Street, Plymouth MA
