Brookfield, originally founded in 1660 as part of the Quabog Plantation, is
a small community of about 3000 people situated midway between Worcester
and Springfield on Route 9. The town is bordered on the south by
Sturbridge, with easy access to the Massachusetts Turnpike. Governed by an
open town meeting and Board of Selectmen, there are many opportunities for
citizens to participate in local government.
Brookfield has maintained its quiet atmosphere while evolving from an
agricultural to a bedroom community for the larger cities to the east and
west, and provides easy access to the educational and cultural
opportunities of these urban areas. With its lakes and river and vast
tracts of open land, the town has much to offer the sportsman, nature lover
and those who enjoy a rural way of life.
Brookfield maintains its K-6 elementary schools and belongs to the
Tantasqua Regional School District, which offers a junior high school, a
high school and a vocational school. Despite the fiscal constraints common
to all Massachusetts towns, Brookfield continues to place a priority on
education, as demonstrated by its funding support for school committee
requests and approval of a debt exclusion for a major addition to the
elementary school.
Every Columbus Day weekend, visitors from all over New England come to take
in the flavor of a small rural town on an autumn day by attending the
annual crafts fair on the common, called the Apple Country Fair.
Central Massachusetts, bordered by North Brookfield on the north; East
Brookfield on the east; Sturbridge on the south; and Brimfield, Warren, and West
Brookfield on the west. Brookfield is 22 miles west of Worcester, 33 miles east
of Springfield, 57 miles west of Boston, and 158 miles from New York City.
