Osamequin Farm (pronounced Oh-suh-MEE-kwin) uses all organic practices to raise flowers, blueberries, veggies, herbs, chickens, sheep, pigs, and more. The land at Osamequin is also home to a cooperative of five other small farms. Farm Director Sarah Turkus has been a farmer since 2010, and these days you can find her on the farm being followed around by her friendly dog Mabel.
