Drumlin Farm is a 291 acre[1] farm and wildlife sanctuary which is also the site of the headquarters of the Massachusetts Audubon Society. It is located at 208 South Great Road (Route 117) in Lincoln, Massachusetts.
Drumlin Farm is a working farm with animals and sustainably grown crops.[1] The sanctuary has trails through "field, forest, and wetland habitat."[1] The sanctuary was founded in 1956 when Louise Ayer Hatheway of Lowell bequeathed her estate to the Massachusetts Audubon Society.[2] Hatheway had founded the farm years earlier as a country retreat when she bought up several smaller farms and constructed a tunnel under Route 117 to connect her house, Gordon Hall, with the farmlands. Gordon Hall currently serves as the Massachusetts Audubon Society Headquarters. The farm offers educational programs for children and adults,[3] as well as a summer camp[4] and an annual sheep-shearing festival.[5]
