The TC3 Farm is a real, working farm adjacent to campus in Dryden.
It serves as the hands-in-the-dirt classroom for our Sustainable Farming and Food Systems program as well as growing fresh produce for the community through our CSA.
The TC3 Farm provides the ideal opportunity for students to experience food production at a human-scaled, local level. By integrating with the Culinary Arts and Hotel and Restaurant Management programs, we provide students with a diversified, hands-on experience unlike any other.
