A group of busy participants are enthusiastically applying a fresh coat of paint to the lower section of the barn. This part of the barn is being transformed into a charming retail space that will be dedicated to selling our fresh produce.

The 3rd graders of Newport School District had an amazing hands-on learning experience at Stone House Farm & Inn on a beautiful autumn morning. They enjoyed learning about various animals, their habitats, and natural resources which complemented a book they recently read. We're glad that you visited our farm!

Today is the day! Join us for the Art Reception at Stone House Farm & Inn to celebrate Carol Reed's environmental art project: Community View.

Stone House Farm & Inn is pleased to announce an opening art reception for “Community View”, an environmental art project by artist Carol Reed. The event will take place on September 14th from 4-6 pm, and all community members are welcome to attend. You can enjoy refreshments and take tours while visiting this new art installation on the farm's grounds.

Reed has collected images of open-and-closed eyes to create a final project that includes a mix of local and remote images. Although these two groups may never meet in person, she will join them together through her "Community View" project. The images will be drawn on porcelain plaques, with open eyes on one side and closed on the other. The plaques will be fully fired but not sealed with glaze, allowing nature to interact with the rough matte surface. The community is invited to view the finished plaques which will be placed at two different heights on the grounds of Stone House Farm, facing each other so they can interact.
