Sachem Rock Farm

Sachem Rock Farm is a historic property comprising multiple structures including barns and outbuildings constructed around 1870, along with a Colonial Revival house on Plymouth Street. The grounds now function as a community center with event rental spaces and resident-managed garden plots.

The property gained prominence in 1649 when English settlers from Plymouth Colony met with Wampanoag leader Massasoit to negotiate land rights for East Bridgewater and surrounding territories. This meeting represented a pivotal moment in establishing colonial claims to the region.

The site centers on Sachem Rock, a granite outcrop known as Wonnocoote in the Wampanoag language, which historically served as a meeting place for Indigenous peoples. Visitors can see this stone and connect to its role in the area's original community life.

The property is accessible as a community center with various event spaces available to visitors. The garden plots can be viewed during growing season when the facility is open to the public.

The property features community garden plots where residents grow fresh produce seasonally. This working garden demonstrates how the historic site remains engaged with daily local life.
