Col. James Barrett Farm
Col. James Barrett Farm, Historical farm in Concord, Massachusetts, US
The Barrett Farm includes a colonial farmhouse, several outbuildings, and agricultural fields spread across a preserved landscape near Minute Man National Historical Park.
Colonel James Barrett stored military supplies, including gunpowder and cannons, at this farm before British forces attempted to seize them on April 19, 1775.
The farm demonstrates agricultural methods and social structures of colonial Massachusetts through preserved buildings, tools, and documented farming practices.
The National Park Service maintains this historic property, which joined Minute Man National Historical Park in 2012 after extensive restoration work.
Local militia members successfully concealed their military supplies in nearby fields before British troops arrived, preventing the seizure of critical revolutionary resources.
