The nature of agriculture in Cheshire County has changed immeasurably over the past three centuries. The transition from 18th-century subsistence farms to organic farming and specialization in the 21st century is a fascinating story of hard work, geography, technology, and economics. The presentation tells the story of agriculture in southwest New Hampshire from the time of Native American habitation to the present day.
