Right to Farm By-Law…what’s that all about?  According to a post on Mass.gov: “The purpose and intent of the Right to Farm By-Law is to state with emphasis the right to farm accorded to all citizens of the Commonwealth under Article 97…encourages the pursuit of agriculture, promotes agriculture-based economic opportunities, and protects farmlands within a town by allowing agricultural uses and related activities to function with minimal conflict with abutters and town agencies.”

The MLS includes an affirmative disclosure regarding Right to Farm communities.  The disclosure applies to the community/town, not to the particular property being listed.  Unfamiliar with which towns are Right to Farm communities, or what their specific disclosure requirement might entail?  Then, please, click for more information.
