Cummings School Farm Donates Eggs to Food Banks
Even without veterinary students on campus, the school’s teaching chickens remain busy, providing dozens of eggs a week to local people in need
On a normal day, the Cummings School Farm in Grafton sells up to seven dozen farm-fresh eggs to people on the veterinary school’s campus. But with students and most staff and faculty staying at home due to COVID-19, the eggs started to accumulate quickly.
The farm’s staff makes sure they don’t go to waste. Farm supervisor James Phillips said about thirty dozen eggs a week are donated to local food banks in Grafton, Upton, and Uxbridge.
