Massaro descendant to visit community farm in Woodbridge

WOODBRIDGE - On Saturday Massaro Community Farm will host James Massaro, grandson of the original John and Mary Massaro in a meet and greet at the farm, 41 Ford Road on the Woodbridge/Ansonia town line. 

Massaro is flying in from Arizona to visit the farm for the first time in three decades to share family memories and hear some of yours.

If you have memories of helping the Massaro family and their farm from decades past, you are invited to stop by Massaro Community Farm Saturday between 4 and 7:30 p.m. where you can sign a guest book and meet James. We'd also like to capture your stories on audio or video. 

Light refreshments will be served. Space is limited. 

This event is free but the farm asks guests to RSVP so they know how many guests to expect. You can do so by calling the farm office or using www.Eventbrite.com .

While James Massaro is in town, the farm is running a membership campaign. 

Become a new subscriber to our monthly newsletter on Oct. 27-28 and we’ll enter your name in a drawing to win a basket of farm goods!
