Wishing to preserve her beloved home and give future generations the chance to experience the sights, smells, and sounds of rural life, Caroline Foster in 1972 donated Fosterfields to the Morris County Park Commission, to be preserved as a ‘living historical farm,’ the first in New Jersey. Not a replica, Fosterfields is a working farm, using the tools, techniques, and materials of a turn-of-the-century farm.

i was checking the website for the Bridget Smith House (ferremonte.org) shown yesterday and under “Restoration” it led to info about a Margaret Hickey of Connolly & Hickey Historical Architects
Went to their website and under current projects was a farm called Fosterfields….so I went to hunt it down. During the week the location was closed so I was about to leave but decided to drive up the hill since its in #morrisparks which led me to a small parking lot and the stairs shown with a mansion at the top
The house looked awesome and come to find it too is part of Fosterfields and thus part of the public park. Its currently being leased by CFNJ.org (Community Foundation of New Jersey) and met with Dayana who told me a little about the place @yourfavoritedayana
i loved everything about the house. the only drawback is no pets
