Welcome to the Loudon Agricultural Commission web site.

The site is for you:

  • A town citizen with an agricultural related question.
  • A town official with a concern about an agricultural issue.

The Agricultural Commission meets at 7pm on the first Thursday of each month at Charlie's Barn. Charlie's Barn is the big white building behind the Town Clerk's office at 29 South Village Road, in Loudon, NH.

The Loudon Agriculture Commission has received a grant to help promote farming in Loudon. Part of this grant is to build either a physical or online profile of farms so others can see the importance and scope of how farming effects our town.

Concurrently, the Loudon Historical Society is looking for historical information on farms and farming families from our town for their upcoming Loudon History book.

The Agriculture Commission would like to partner with the Historical Society and see if we can collect a brief history of the farms in our area.
