Warwick Life host Scott Nerney talks with City Historian and Warwick Historical Society Vice President Henry A.L. Brown about Spring Green Farm.

A member of the illustrious Brown family, Henry grew up on the property purchased by John Brown—Henry’s great-great-great-great-great-grandfather—in 1782. Hear about Spring Green Farm from its start in 1642 to its development in the 1920s, 30, and 40s, including Henry’s firsthand recollections of the growth of Governor Francis Farms.
