Driving Directions to the Farm School

Driving directions from Boston:
Take Route 2 West past Templeton. Not long after you pass the exits for Templeton, Route 2 will narrow from 4 lanes to 2. Shortly after that, take the first exit for ATHOL (marked: Athol, Route 2A). At the end of the ramp, go LEFT onto Route 2A west. Follow 2A down through Athol straight through the stoplight in the center of town (about 3 miles). After 1/4 mile, cross the bridge and turn RIGHT just before the "Country Convenience" store/Citgo station onto North Orange Road. After a couple of hundred yards, bear RIGHT at the first Y in the road, and proceed with the graveyard to your left and river on your right. After about 3/4 of a mile, turn LEFT onto Brooks Road. Pass one house on the right and take your next LEFT and go steeply up Moore Hill Road. Continue RIGHT onto Sentinel Elm Road, a dirt road. Finally, follow the sign for Farm School Parking into the lot on the right and walk up to the bunkhouse on the hill.

Directions from the West:
Take Route 2 East to the exit that says "Rt. 202, Athol, Belchertown" (lovely!). Turn right at the bottom of the exit ramp. Continue until the road makes a T next to McDonald's and turn right (which puts you on Rt. 2A in Athol traveling east). Just after the "Country Convenience" store/Citgo station on the left, take a LEFT and head towards North Orange. After a couple of hundred yards, bear RIGHT at the first Y in the road, and proceed with the graveyard to your left and river on your right. After about 3/4 of a mile, turn LEFT onto Brooks Road. Pass one house on the right and take your next LEFT and go steeply up Moore Hill Road. After the road levels out and takes a sharp right it becomes Sentinel Elm Road, a dirt road. Finally, follow the sign for Farm School Parking into the lot on the right and walk up to the bunkhouse at the top of the driveway (directly across from the big white barn).
