ABOUT OCEAN HOUR FARM
The mission of Ocean Hour Farm is to serve as a center for education, scientific research, and demonstration of regenerative agricultural practices. The 43 acre property lies just across the street from the Narragansett Bay, making it an ideal location for highlighting the critical connection between land management and ocean health. The vision of the farm is to provide a living example of regenerative agriculture and land stewardship – an integrated system where plants, animals, and people heal ecosystems while producing food and fiber for the community.

Running the farm is truly a collaborative effort. All employees, no matter the department, participate in some capacity in carrying out educational programming, research activities and whole systems design work for the farm. All roles will therefore require excellent organizational skills, the ability to collaborate with staff in other departments as well as a deep understanding of the land to sea connection.
