Perched on a hilltop with magnificent views of the Sandwich Range and Mt. Tecumseh, High Pond Farm’s 25 acres feature
a wildlife and swimming pond with sandy beach, an intermittent stream, woods, meadows, and lovely perennial gardens. Nearby
conservation parcels offer opportunities to study bog, stream, and forested habitats. The alpine habitats of Franconia Notch
are half an hour’s drive from the farm, as is Mount Moosilauke. Squam and Newfound Lakes are 15 minutes away. Conveniently located just off I93 in Plymouth, New Hampshire, the farm accommodates
ten students (double or triple occupancy) in 2 spacious cabins (electricity, wood stove, no running water but use of facilities
in the main house) and 2 bedrooms (shared baths) in the main house.
The classroom in the main house is equipped with dissecting and
compound
microscopes and a digital projector. (Students are welcome to bring their own
microscopes if they prefer.)
Wireless internet service is available throughout
the house. Students gather for meals and conversation in the comfortable great
room with fieldstone fireplace.
