Book & Plow Farm

We are now in our 11th growing season. We work with a fantastic group of students on campus to grow vegetables for the Dining Hall and for donation to local food pantries. 

We will offer a few on-campus and virtual events this year and are happy to collaborate with campus groups and Professors. Professors who want to visit the farm with your class (either in-person or over zoom), email kbrow@amherst.edu. Learn more about how the farm can be an academic resource for you and your class.

We will begin hiring for our Fall Work Study Crew in mid-August. Learn more about student employment at Book & Plow.
