The Weir Preserve is located to the southwest of Weir Farm National Historic Site. It consists of 110 acres of walkways and trails. In 2005, the Connecticut Chapter of The Nature Conservancy donated the Weir Preserve property to the Weir Farm Art Center which now maintains the property under the supervision of a volunteer stewardship committee.

Did You Know?
The Land of Nod was the name given to his property, now preserved as Weir Farm National Historic Site, by J. Alden Weir and his artist friends. Both Weir and Childe Hassam used the phrase to title works that were inspired by the local landscape.
