A visit to Deerfield is not complete unless you have explored the great outdoors and perhap partake in one of the activities available. The Channing Blake Footpath offers visitors the opportunity to discover Deerfield’s landscape or perhaps a trip to The Cooks’ Garden, a beautiful space that features plants that would have been used during colonial times.
