In 1911 Ciro and Concetta Spinella moved from North Jersey to Waterford Works in order to be closer to Concetta’s family, the Lombardos. They purchased 22 acres and started a farm, just one of hundreds operating in Winslow Township at the time. Over 100 years later the farm is still in operation, producing fresh vegetables for local markets and a CSA. Learn from Gloria Spinella how four generations of the Spinella/Cuneo family have kept this farm going by adapting to changing needs over the decades when almost all of the other small farms in the Township have disappeared. The presentation starts at 8:00 PM following our regular business meeting. Free Admission with free light refreshments provided.
