A brief description of the garden:
The Dickinson College Farm is a 180-acre working farm and educational resource that provides produce to the college’s dining hall, a local food bank and members of the farm’s co-op. Located a short drive from campus in Boiling Springs, Pa., the farm includes state-of-the-art sustainable operations, such as solar-electric and solar-hot-water systems. It is run by staff members and student workers and interns.
