We have made incredible progress in just two short years, and none of it would have been possible without the collective energy and support of so many people, all dedicated to the goal of creating a unique and special place nestled in the woods and fields of Tiverton, Rhode Island, a place that will nurture and foster the arts and artists, sustainable farming and farmers, now and for generations to come.
Can you take a moment to help us along on our journey? No amount is too small. Sandywoods is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and your gift is tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. Thank you! |

Greetings from Sandywoods Farm, the unique and exciting new intentional community in rural Tiverton, Rhode Island, dedicated to the arts, sustainable agriculture, affordable housing, and land stewardship.
For those of you close by, we hope you'll visit us soon. The Sandywoods Center for the Arts is a hub of activity. With our entertainment license in hand, we have a great concert lineup for 2013, and live theatre too. We have Monday night figure drawing classes, zumba and pilates classes on Wednesdays, a monthly contra dance, live music every weekend, a Tuesday night open mic, YMCA summer camp, and so much more!
Our half-acre, chemical-free community garden is building on its incredibly productive first two seasons, with many new members joining us. And hiking trails at the Basket Swamp Preserve have been blazed by our friends at the Tiverton Land Trust. Not sure how to find us?
