Development on the property has been limited to structures that support passive recreation use including a small play area, large picnic pavilion, restrooms, boathouse with dock, open-air seating and a trail network that winds through the alfalfa fields and the Atlantic White Cedar swamp. Powers Farm is home to annual events such as Harvest Hoopla in October, Main Street Marketplace farmers market June through September, and summer programs including kayaking and canoeing.

Generations of Randolph residents have enjoyed recreational activities on the land once known as Bendall Farm, then Sunnyworth Manor, and now Powers Farm, as well as neighboring Norroway Pond and Bertha Soule Memorial Park.  The town acquired the properties to keep as a nature preserve through land donation, grant-funded land purchase, and Community Preservation Act funding.

In 2009 the Town of Randolph, Massachusetts, through the Community Preservation Committee, purchased a 22-acre parcel of land from the Powers family, who had farmed the property for over a century. This open space parcel, now known as Powers Farm Community Park, encompasses a portion of Norroway Brook, Norroway Pond, multiple acres of successional meadows, marshland, an alfalfa field, and an Atlantic White Cedar Swamp.

This parcel is unique to Randolph and much of the metropolitan Boston area because it is an undeveloped 22-acre parcel with a five-acre pond, acres of open field, and a rare Atlantic White Cedar Swamp. Active agriculture, over the past century, has kept the land open and kept invasive plant species in check. Wildlife is abundant due to the connectivity to large expanses of open space to the north and south. Norroway Pond, constructed for agricultural uses and ice harvest, is a scenic treasure and home to a large population of waterfowl and other wildlife.
