Business Description
Cultivate. Learn. Grow.
The Amherst College Farm is a diversified vegetable farm that will begin operations in the Spring of 2013 on Amherst College property. The farm will be located on Tuttle Hill, adjacent to the Norwottuck Rail Trail and a short walk from campus.
Book & Plow Farm and Amherst College are poised to create a model in farm-to-student dining through the development of an on-campus farm. The relationship will provide Valentine Dining Hall with organic vegetables raised on site, the students with a worthwhile opportunity to learn more intimately about their role in food consumption and production, and the land with the agricultural practices focused on soil development, structure, and health.
