Welcome to Parmelee Farm

The 132-acre Parmelee Farm was purchased by the Town of Killingworth in 2000. It was known at that time as the Bosco Property. The property is centrally located near the center of town, adjacent to Cockaponsett State Forest and the new Haddam-Killingworth Middle School. The property was unused until 2007 when use as a community garden was approved. The enthusiasm generated by the gardens prompted more town organizations to take note of the property's potential. Structures on the property include an 18th century farmhouse, a stone barn, post and beam barn, pole barn and small storage shed. The Parmelee Farm connects our community to the natural environment and cultural heritage of Killingworth through education, agriculture, preservation, passive recreation and the arts.
