One of the park's many superhuman volunteers.
 

Volunteers-In-Parks (VIPs) are an important part of Weir Farm National Historic Site. Each year we benefit from the efforts of over 100 VIPs who assist us with a variety of projects and tasks; including garden and trail maintenance, visitor services and interpretation, historic buildings maintenance and preservation, and archival letter transcription.

Did You Know?
The Land of Nod was the name given to his property, now preserved as Weir Farm National Historic Site, by J. Alden Weir and his artist friends. Both Weir and Childe Hassam used the phrase to title works that were inspired by the local landscape.
