Visiting Adams Farm in Cumberland, R.I.

Article and photo by Eric H. 

Adams Farm, in Cumberland, R.I., is a summer and fall

We visited Adams Farm two consecutive days, as we were impressed by its retreat-like qualities, so close to home. While places like this are commonplace in Vermont and New Hampshire, they are not in the suburban Providence, R.I., to Boston. Mass., region. That is why Adams Farm seems to be all that much more special, as tranquility is only a stone's throw away from the hectic urban/suburban sprawl that only seems to be growing too quickly. At Adams Farm, growth only applies to plant life -- so rich, so pleasing and yet within proximity to what some to refer to as civilization. It seems to us, however, that Adams Farm is civilization -- pure, wholesome and natural.
