Like Jana and Charnice, I haven’t had the chance to fully explore all of the interesting places and things around Dartmouth. That being said, one very cool place to visit, that’s off campus, is Dartmouth’s organic farm. It is located about three miles from campus by car, bike, or river paddle (you can get there by water since its located right next to the river). The organic farm is in operation year round and provides students with tons of educational and recreational opportunities. Whether you decide to work/volunteer for the organic farm, have a lesson there with a class, or visit with a school group there are always tons of things to do and explore on the farm. I had the opportunity to live on the organic farm for five days during my DOC (Dartmouth Outing Club) pre-orientation trip and had so much fun. My group and I learned how the farm operates, picked and sautéed vegetables, and swam in the river. For more information about the organic farm visit http://www.dartmouth.edu/~doc/organicfarm/
