Join us on Sunday, September 13, for Savor Litchfield, the culinary event of the year at South Farms in Morris!
On Lake Waramaug’s silvery surface, a striking modern structure rises from the shoreline—a bold departure from traditional lakefront cabins. Its floor-to ceiling windows offer clean, minimalist lines, mirroring the water below. It commands attention through elegant simplicity. “When you’re inside, you feel like you’re on the lake,” says Marie Schwartz, who, along with her husband, Mark, commissioned the construction. “Whether inside or out, it allows you to enjoy the surrounding environment—it makes the lake itself the focal point.”

After losing her father and best friend, Jon Siegel,
in February, Rachel Marshall of Lakeville is riding
this year’s Pan-Mass Challenge in his honor.
Jon rode the PMC for over 40 years, including after his glioblastoma diagnosis and brain surgery.
Now, Rachel is carrying forward his legacy of courage, generosity, and hope.
This will be Rachel’s second PMC ride and 17th year volunteering. She is also celebrating seven years in recovery from addiction, a journey her father supported every step of the way.
The Pan Mass Challenge takes place August 1 & 2.
After raising nearly $19,000 last year,
Rachel hopes to surpass $25,000 this year.
