What is ArtFarm?

What is ArtFarm?

ArtFarm is an experiment. ArtFarm is Somerville’s proposal for our next great public space: a self-sustaining art and urban agriculture laboratory designed to foster community engagement and creativity. We are working to turn a former waste transfer station into a thriving open space.

Site Assessment Grant

The goal of Somerville’s Brownfields Assessment Program is to help property owners minimize the uncertainties of contamination often associated with brownfields. Funds are intended to kick-start a redevelopment process that ultimately results in new development with the goals of stabilizing neighborhoods, adding jobs and homes, and increasing the City's tax base.

iFund

The Innovation Fund or I-Fund is a $1 million loan fund for Somerville businesses with innovative products or business models. Historically, this fund has been used to help extraordinary businesses move to–or stay in–Somerville.
