Prescott Farm is open to the public daily, from dawn to dusk.

Prescott Farm preserves 40 acres of open space, a tribute to the agrarian heritage of Aquidneck Island. The site is open daily from dawn to dusk for public enjoyment.

Prescott Farm’s kitchen and herb gardens are tended to by a dedicated team from University of Rhode Island’s Master Gardener program and our living laboratories showcase the marriage of colonial horticultural practices with more modern gardening techniques. To enhance the rural landscape, Doris Duke relocated several historic buildings to the property, including an eye-catching windmill.
