Build Public Restrooms at Creek Farm, Portsmouth

After many years of providing seasonal porta-potties at Creek Farm, the time has come for better public restrooms. Our facilities at Creek Farm have undergone a transformation over the last several years. The Forest Society Education Center at Creek Farm opened in 2021 and provides four-season program space for the Forest Society and partner organizations. The one remaining facilities need is an accessible restroom that is available for public use from dawn to dusk and during evening programs.

Creek Farm offers outdoor space, a rocky beach, trails and hand-carry boat access to Sagamore Creek.  It is enjoyed by people of all ages participating in educational programs, the Gundalow summer camps and self-guided outdoor activities.

The Forest Society will build a public restroom facility consisting of two family bathrooms with a covered waiting area and water-bottle fill station near the education center. Construction will begin in early 2023 with the goal of opening at the start of the summer season. We are currently about half way to our goal of $207,000 for this project.

We all know that using porta-potties is not the most pleasant experience, especially in the heat of summer and as the days get chilly.

Please help us better serve visitors to Creek Farm with a gift to this project!
