About Bedford Farmers Club
Bedford Farmers Club seeks to encourage wise and rewarding use of communal lands and foster an awareness of Bedford's remarkable agricultural heritage. Advancing knowledge and improving the practice of agriculture and horticulture in a farming community was the premise of the Bedford Farmers Club in 1852. Today it addresses "backyard" farming, horticulture, animal husbandry, local history, and encourages wise use of land, soil and water, and the protection of the total environment.
BFC meetings are held five times a year (April, May, June, September and October), generally on Wednesdays at 3:00 p.m. Meetings consist of a speaker and/or on-site tour; a brief business meeting; a presentation by our BFC historian; "Timely Tips" on gardening or the environment; and refreshments.
We are open to all, and use the $10 annual dues to support our programs.
