Hey Everyone!
Is there a better way to spend a Friday night then biking out to the farm, eating delicious food, sitting around a bonfire and watching a movie? I don’t think so.
Come join us for this fun filled Friday night. We will meet at Kaufman Hall at 5:oo pm and from there we will bike out to the farm together in two or three large groups. Please bring a dish to pass which will be transported to the farm by car as well as your bike, a helmet (if desired), a sweater, and a smile on your face. We will provide a map and direction as well as transportation back to Dickinson once the sun goes down.

Movie Synopsis:
Five young people without farming backgrounds embark on making their farming dreams a reality.
