Flowers on the College FarmSo, your Dickinson College department, club or student group is interested in holding an event at the College Farm! We’re excited to help you bring your vision to fruition. If you already know exactly how you want your event at the farm to play out, great: if not, the farm staff can help you brainstorm. We will also assist you with the coordination of your event in keeping with Dickinson College’s policies and Campus Life procedures.

Step 1:

Read our Events Policies and Procedures carefully. This document details your responsibilities when planning an event to be held at the farm. It is intended to provide interested individuals or groups with helpful information and guidelines pertaining to farm-based events.

Step 2:

Step 3:

Once the farm confirms that your proposed date/time is available, you will be asked to fill out and submit a Farm Event Request Form.

We kindly request at least two weeks Dickinson Farm Lower Barn and Corn Crib advanced notice for events. We take reservations months ahead of time.
