Quincy Farm

Welcome to Quincy Farm

Welcome to Quincy Farm, a pristine rural oasis in the heart of Cherry Hills Village. Quincy Farm represents 26% of our public open space and parks and is located along the High Line Canal. This iconic 17.5-acre farm was graciously donated to the City of Cherry Hills Village by Catherine (“Cat”) Anderson. Quincy Farm is a unique property nestled among century-old trees, pasture lands, and sweeping meadows, and boasts a collection of historic and significant structures. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Farm includes a 1930s barn and the only 19th-century farmhouse in the area.

Quincy Farm is a place where visitors of all ages can enjoy educational programs, explore a unique, historical farm and its open space, connect with neighbors, and spark a lifelong curiosity about the larger issues of conservation, sustainability, and nature. The east side is open to the public, and we invite you to come to visit anytime, from dawn to dusk, or join us for a scheduled event!

“In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.”

–John Muir

Who We Are 

Cherry Hills Land Preserve is a local nonprofit organization, founded in 2005 to inspire nature conservation and open space stewardship in Cherry Hills Village. Since late 2021, in a partnership with the City of Cherry Hills Village, Cherry Hills Land Preserve has focused on revitalizing Quincy Farm to transform this long-dormant property into a vibrant community asset that connects people to nature and history.

What We Do

It’s all about open space, nature, history, and COMMUNITY at Quincy Farm! 

  • Provide educational programs and exciting events like the Barn Party that bring us together as a community

  • Engage and inform residents on the value of preserving this historic Farm and local conservation 

  • Partner with the City of Cherry Hills Village on planning and strategy for property improvements so current and future generations can enjoy this unique community asset. Exciting news! Check out the groundbreaking 2024 annual plan that was unanimously approved by the City Council on November 7, 2023.  

  • Promote public access to the entire property while protecting its natural open space

The Vision

Jointly developed with the City of Cherry Hills Village

Quincy Farm will be an integral part of the educational and recreational infrastructure of the City of Cherry Hills Village, a place of experiences that remind our community of its agricultural heritage, a place of natural beauty and open spaces, a place that provides a rich habitat for local flora and fauna, and a place that centers and enriches the Cherry Hills Village Community.

We encourage you to visit the farm, learn about our Programs, check out our News/Gallery of photos, and discover how you can get involved today!
