Caroline Rose Foster
Caroline Rose Foster (6 April 1877 – 26 July 1979) was an American farmer, the creator of Fosterfields, a working historical farm in Morristown, New Jersey, United States.〔Kimmett, Evelyn. ("Fosterfields Living Historical Farm" ), Skylands Visitor. Accessed November 11, 2014. "To enter Fosterfields, a working farm since 1760 and New Jersey's first living, historical farm, is to magically step back into the 19th and early 20th centuries. Walking amidst the tall Norway Spruces, it is easy to imagine life in the days of Caroline Foster, who lived there for 98 years, until her death at the age of 102 in 1979.... Fosterfields Living Historical Farm is located at 73 Kahdena Road, Morristown, NJ, just off County Route 510 (formerly Route 24), 1-1/4 miles west of the Morristown Green."〕 In 2009 Foster was among 100 women honored by the National Women's History Project as "women taking the lead to save our planet".〔(Honorees: 2010 National Women’s History Month )〕
==Life==
Caroline Rose Foster was the daughter of Charles Grant Foster (1843-1927) and Emma Louise Thompson.〔Lynne Mayo, (SMITH / THOMPSON / FOSTER MORRISTOWN NEW JERSEY )〕 In 1881 her father bought a Morris County farm from General Joseph Warren Revere, a grandson of Paul Revere. He renamed it Fosterfields, and from 1881 to 1915 developed it as a farm breeding Jersey cattle. In 1927 Caroline Foster inherited the farm, and preserved it as a working farm using the farm practices of her childhood. In 1974 she arranged to bequeath it to the Morris County Park Commission to be preserved as a "living historical farm", the first in New Jersey.〔(Friends of Fosterfields: The Farm )〕 She died aged 102 in 1979.
