Swanson's Farm

1 site · RV, Tent33 acres · West Greenwich, RI

We have a pretty magical farm in rural West Greenwich. We are only about 10 mins from I-95 but we are nestled in the woods. Fall asleep to the sound of crickets and cicadas and wake up to birds chirping and our rooster crowing . It is certainly a peaceful, quiet, private area. Our site has a waste-bag toilet (must take waste with you), an extension cord and a sink. The site is located in a quiet field where you will often find deer grazing in the morning and afternoon. We are a young farming family. Our dream is to build a cidery on this property in future years. We have started to plant our orchard with cider apple varieties, about 650 dwarf apple trees, and we are also growing some flowers and squash at the moment. We currently have six pigs and nine chickens on the farm. Eggs and cuts of pork are available for purchase, just ask! Feel free to walk around the farm, just be respectful, don't leave anything behind, and be aware that some areas have poison ivy (the field where you are staying does not have any).

The best camping near Roger Williams National Memorial guide

Overview

About

In the heart of Providence, Rhode Island stands a memorial to individual freedom. One urban park shows that, against all odds, one man founded what would become a key state of the Union during the American Revolution. Welcome to the place where Roger Williams founded the city of Providence in 1636.

The park is more than just a memorial to Williams. The Antram-Gray House, built in 1730, serves as the visitor center. A real, working garden shows what it was like to harvest crops native to the area and the time period of the 17th century. A stone memorial and courtyard marks the spot where Williams found the spring of water that led to his founding of the city. It was named Providence because he felt divine influence led him to the spot.

The Williams memorial is so much more than just a 4.5-acre public park. It's a reminder that everyone can get along. Williams was lost and alone in the wilderness after being exiled from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Fortunately, the Narragansett tribe befriended Williams and helped him to survive. All Williams wanted was a place to worship freely without any hindrance. It was this guiding principle that led to Rhode Island's founding in 1663. Religious freedom was also paramount with regards to drafting the U.S. Constitution in 1787.

There's plenty of history to see in downtown Providence, thanks to old buildings and monuments nearby. This park serves as a good starting point for your day-long adventure into one of the oldest cities in America. Summer and fall offer plenty to do in the city, whether you love outdoor festivals, concerts or cultural activities.
