Welcome to Dilmun Hill. We are a student-run farm that has been practicing sustainable agriculture on Cornell University's campus for more than a decade. Our mission is to provide students, faculty, staff and community with opportunities for experiential learning, group collaboration and research. Throughout the year we host work parties where volunteers work in the fields and experience the latest in sustainable ag practices. The student managers and steering committee members collaborate with the Organic Coordinator and Faculty Advisor to provide leadership in farm operations and disseminate information through education and outreach. We also collaborate with various organizations on campus, such as McDaniels Nut Grove (MNG). Our popular campus farm stand offers Dilmun Hill produce for sale from June through October and we supply local produce to Cornell Dining and Manndible Cafe in season. |
Fall work parties at Dilmun Hill. Help us, help you. Experience the latest in sustainable ag practices and support the farm.
- Garlic planting: Saturday, Nov.14, 11 am - 3 pm
- Season wrap up: Nov. 21, 11 am
Since the work parties happen frequently, we might not get around to reminding you each time they're coming up. But rest assured, we'll be there waiting for volunteers! If none of the listed times work for you, get in contact with us and we will arrange a time that works for you.
From Spring to late fall, on the Ithaca campus.
Love fresh food grown with enthusiasm? Do your shopping for the week at the Dilmun Hill Student Farm Stand. Student farmers are selling picked-that-morning vegetables. Also available are fresh mushrooms and potted plants from the MacDaniels Nut Grove and Dilmun-inspired art.
Thank you for supporting experimental and sustainable agriculture at Cornell!
