 In 2001, Summerseat Farm, Inc. was formed to preserve the rural character, history, and natural resources of the farm.  Summerseat is a 127 acre working farm located in northern St. Mary's County, Maryland. It functions as a farm for breeding the only publicly accessible herd of American Buffalo in the region. 

Summerseat's Manor House and gardens provide a beautiful backdrop for weddings, picnics, tours, business meetings, retreats and other special events.  For more information, please contact (301)-373-6607 or email info@summerseat.org.

 

Summerseat has served as home to a countless number of farm animals to include horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, and even llamas!  Many of the current farm animals have come to Summerseat either by donation or as gifts. Birds of flight include geese, ducks, guinnea hens, doves, and a large variety of chickens.   

The wild residents (grazing the fenced in pastures) include American Buffalo and Barbados Sheep, giving Southern Maryland a variety of animals only seen at Summerseat! 

At one time, Summerseat had considered serving as an Animal Sanctuary for the local community.  However, due to funding constraints, Summerseat is no longer able to care for wounded or sick animals.  

The following resources are available for those interested in animal adoption resources or wild animal care:

  • The Animal Control Office: 301-475-8018
  • The Tri-County Animal Shelter: 301-932-1713
  • The St. Mary's Animal Welfare League: 301-373-5659
  • Department of Natural Resources (Wildlife) 1-877-463-6497

 

Directions:  From Lexington Park, Rt 235, about 6 miles North of Hollywood intersection, go thru flashing yellow light at RT 247 (Loveville Rd).  Turn left at next crossover.  South - From Waldorf, Rt 5 to Rt 235 about 4 miles south of Rt 5/235 split at WAWA and just north of Loveville Rd.  Follow signs to Summerseat Farm on the right.

Summerseat Farm, Inc. is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization run entirely by volunteers using donations/memberships/fund raisers only.  Contributions go directly to help preserve the farm and are tax deductible as allowed by law.
