Have you ever wondered about Codman's hardest-working farmhands?
Meet Portia and Poppy, our two devoted livestock guardian dogs at Codman Community Farms.
These loyal companions spend their days happily out in the fields — and now back at the farm for the winter — keeping a watchful eye on our chickens. They’re carrying on a tradition that their ancestors have been bred to do for centuries: protecting livestock and ensuring they are safe night and day.
Join us to discover:
