Sunset Picnics at Weir River Farm

Live music, local food, craft brews, and the South Shore’s best views

Starting June 22 and running every Thursday evening until September 28, the Sunset Picnic series will feature local breweries and food trucks, live music, and the best view on the South Shore. Pack your picnic blanket and chairs and relax with your friends while watching the sun set over the Boston skyline. Greet our iconic Belted Galloway cows as they graze in their pasture. And don’t forget to shop our farm store filled with delicious locally-sourced picnic supplies as well as Trustees-grown meat, dairy and beautiful produce.
