Please note: NO DOGS , except working guide dogs, on campus! We cannot emphasize this enough: please leave your dogs at home as we don't want them left in cars on a hot summer day. Also for safety's sake, please bring no glass.

On-Site Camping

There is free primitive walk-in camping in the woods at Forget-Me-Not Farm (this area is close to the parking lot -- no putting up tents next to your car). There will also be "Car and RV Camping" available in a field adjacent to the festival for $20 for the weekend (beginning on Friday evening for those who have reserved their camping space in advance). There will be port-a-potties and we plan to have solar-heated showers available for campers. There are no RV hook-ups. No dogs or glass , please. Working guide dogs permitted.
