If lounging around the beach gets too mundane for your adventurous personality, there are still more opportunities for fun on the horizon at Farm Pond. With a boating dock to the left and a place to take out paddle boards, teenagers and adults can travel out beyond the buoyed waters of the pond.
A member of the Sherborn community Emily Thomas often goes to Farm Pond with her family and loves to catch up with friends on the beach side of the pond. “We normally come a few times a week over the summer. I like that when we come, we normally run into people that we know, I think it’s the best part. You don’t have to plan anything with friends when you come here, you just know you are going to find somebody, and your kids are going to find someone to play with. It’s small enough where it doesn’t feel super crowded, for the older kids like my daughter, she likes to go paddle boarding, and I can see her from the beach, which is great, said Thomas.
A quick escape from the business of life, Farm Pond is a beautiful area, with a wonderful view, to relax and enjoy quality time in the great outdoors. Go check out Farm Pond, you can find out more information at https://www.sherbornma.org/node/4863.
