For a thriving Belchertown

A collaboration between the Belchertown Nipmuc Farm Conservation Alliance and Hampshire College Students.

Supported by a grant from Project Pericles.

This project has been built as an opportunity to share resources and stories for people of Belchertown to further understand the rematriation of Lampson Brook Farm, and how it supports and strengthens the wider community. During the spring of 2026, Amarah Azor, Sophie Creamer, Tiger Lilly Estrada, Andrew Gonzalez, and Malena Price, conducted interviews with Belchertown residents, and individuals who have directly experienced the impacts of rematriation. This project serves as demonstration of the overlap between food, land and community that arises from a rematriated Lampson Brook.
