We are pleased to announce that we have become a member of Coonamessett Farm in Falmouth, Ma. Coonamessett Farm is a twenty-acre farming and research enterprise located on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, USA. The operation is organized in three Divisions: Agricultural Production, Research, and Consulting. Coonamessett Farm has been serving public- and private-sector clients locally and globally since 1989.
Our first activity upon joining was to harvest a number of herbs to plant in our herb garden at The Captain’s Manor Inn. Just yesterday we started our breakfast offering with Kevin’s wonderful poached pear with raspberry sauce highlighted by fresh mint leaves just picked from our herb garden. We look forward to more wonderful breakfasts served with fresh fruit, herbs etc. from our garden and from Coonamessett Farm.

As a precursor to the annual Figawi race, the Falmouth leg allows sailors, particularly from points west of Cape Cod, and opportunity to shake down and prep for the Hyannis to Nantucket sail later that same weekend. In addition, the stop-over in Falmouth Harbor will give delivery crews and visiting yachtsmen an opportunity to visit and enjoy the hospitality of one of the jewels of Cape Cod that is Falmouth. Sailors with be welcomed with dockage and mooring space courtesy of MacDougalls’, Falmouth Yacht Club and the Town of Falmouth and the best of Main Street’s dining and shopping.

In 2009 the Town of Falmouth was designated a “Preserve America Community“ by the White House. This award is important because it is for perpetuity and Falmouth is the only town on the Cape to have received this award. The award is a tribute to the our historical organizations and individuals who have helped to keep our town’s history preserved and relevant for us and for the future. 
In 2011, Falmouth plans to honor the “Preserve America” designation in conjunction with the 325th Anniversary of the incorporation of Falmouth in 1686.
We invite you to book your accomodations at the elegant Captain’s Manor Inn in Falmouth where there are numerous historic sites, museums, and homes. Guided historic walks are provided by The Falmouth Historic Society as well as Highfield Hall.
We are especially proud of Falmouth’s designation as a Preserve America Community and view ourselves as stewards of The Captain’s Manor Inn, a Cape Cod bed and breakfast built in 1849 and lovingly restored to its old-world architectural splendor with up-to-date amenities. The Inn is listed on the National Historic Register of Historic Places as part of the Falmouth Village Green Historic District.
