Today, the non-profit tenants at Waltham's last farm put out a statement that makes it clear how much your support is needed right now. A month after 6,400 people said to UMass, "Don't sell the farm," it appears that the tenants have heard nothing from UMass.

Please call and e-mail our elected officials on Friday and tell them one thing: "The UMass Field Station must remain the open space that it is, with the tenants that it has."

Reach Rep. John Lawn here.

Reach Senator Mike Barrett here.
