We invite you to run, walk, saunter or mosey through the beautiful Natick Community Organic Farm and surrounding conservation land. Our scenic course is a 3 x 1 mile loop that includes road, gravel, grass, and trail. If you have a farm or animal themed costume you would like to wear for the run, this would be very welcome!

This event is for runners and walkers of all ages. Kids have the option of completing the full three laps (approximately 5k) or just one lap. All participants will receive a commemorative chicken medal!

Proceeds will support NCOF's work including our scholarship fund, which provides financial assistance to students who would not otherwise be able to participate in the farm's extensive educational programs and to the farm's Teen Programs which offer paid work experience opportunities to local young people year-round.

RACE DAY DETAILS:

Check In / Registration

Online registration is open until 5PM the day before the race. Walk ups are welcome day-of, but please take a note of registration timings below.

Runners are expected to check in and pick up bibs by 8:15AM. To register on the day please arrive by 8AM. A list of registered runners with your bib numbers will be posted online and at registration table on Race Day.

Parking

Enter the shared driveway at 117 Eliot St and head toward Memorial Elementary School. Parking is available in the teardrop, by the tennis courts, and behind the school.

The Race

Runners will start at 8:30AM. We will start everyone at the same time. However, we will ask those wanting to run to start at the front and those wanting to walk or just do one loop of the course to start at the back of the group. This will allow faster runners to make it through the course without too much congestion in some of the tighter trail areas and allow walkers to enjoy the route. Runners can record their times by “gun time”. The Farm will not record individual times but will track the top 3 'three-loop' runners in the Adult (11yrs +) and Kid (10 and under) categories.

The Course

The NCOF Course is a three loop course which is approximately 5k. The loop begins at the NCOF driveway, runs past the farmhouse, some of our garden beds and into the Forest Gnome Trail. You will then bear right onto the Aqueduct Trail, and then exit at the Memorial School. The course runs behind the Memorial School, into the Athletic Fields, skirting the outside of the soccer field, before taking a hard right onto the sidewalk and heading back to the Farm driveway. After your third lap, you will head down the driveway, pass the barn, and finish by the rabbits and chickens.

The course is about 40% Trail, 40% Field and 20% Road / Gravel. If you are new to running trails, the course is not very technical, but you still need to be aware of your footing while running. Please be sure to follow the directions of volunteers and course markings (there will be signs and flags to follow) to ensure you run the full course.

*Kids in strollers can join the race.

*No dogs allowed.

Refund Policy

We will issue full refunds up to and including June 7. From June 8th no refunds will be made.

Post-Race & Awards

There will be refreshments post-race for runners and walkers. Awards will be presented to the top finishers. After the race, we welcome you to enjoy exploring the Farm with your friends and families.

If you have questions, or would like to volunteer email us.
