Hartwell Farm was a restaurant in Lincoln, Massachusetts, United States. Established in 1925 by Marion Abbie Fitch, [1] a Boston schoolteacher, and Jane Hamilton Poor, an architect, [2] [3] it occupied the 1733-built Samuel Hartwell House, on Virginia Road in today's Minute Man National Historical Park. [4] The building was destroyed by fire in February 1968, [5] and all that remains is its central chimney stack. [3]
The restaurant's name preserved that of the property owned by Samuel Hartwell (1742–1829). [3] [6]
Recipes from the restaurant have been published in several books, including Adventures in Good Eating (1940s and 1950s), Mrs. Appleyard's Kitchen (1974), [7] The Great American Cookbook (2011) and Adventures in Good Cooking (2014). [8] [9] [10] It was described as serving "country fare." [11]
The dining table of the restaurant, which served the same 25 luncheon and dinner options each day, [5] was placed in a "moon" arrangement so as not to have the guests sitting uncomfortably close to the fireplace. [12]
Poor died of edema in October 1961. [13] Thirteen years later, Fitch published Hartwell Farm – A Way of Life, a book which documented the running of the property, including the introduction of running water. [13]
