Follow Bethabara, past the little church on your right, for 3.6 miles, to the end of the pavement. Dead ahead is a dirt drive, with a cute little house called the "Casa Contenta" slightly on the left, on top of a little hill. Keep going! You are almost at the Farm.

Follow the dirt drive, up the little hill with Casa
Contenta on your left. This dirt drive continues, between a couple of fences,
and on up into the Cove, for 4/10 of a mile.
There will be a first drive to your left, just past some piled Indian rocks,
but continue straight. There will be a second drive on you left, with the
stone pillars. The Farm gate will be straight ahead. Drive through the gate,
and you will see the old red barn at the top of the field, and the Round Top
and the Pine Knob up on the ridge. Pull up just past the red barn and park.
Welcome to the Farm! |
