We are honored to share Land’s Sake Farm has been awarded the prestigious Harleston Parker Medal. This highest honor awarded by BSA/AIA recognizes “the most beautiful piece of architecture, building, monument, or structure within the City or Metropolitan Parks District limits”
The jury found that Land’s Sake Farm is a project where architecture, craft, and community come together in a way that feels both intentional and lively. The building is legible, allowing visitors to understand its structure and purpose while engaging with the farm’s educational and communal programs. Overall, the entirely community-funded farm transcends its program by embracing a broad constituency, providing access, education, and substance, ultimately demonstrating how architecture can support both people and place in meaningful ways.
Together the new Farmstand and Animal Barn form the heart of the Agrarian Campus and are the result of a 7-year pro-bono effort that began with a master plan.
