Kurn Hattin's agricultural program was founded in 1894 on the belief that the rural New England farm life instilled in children the values and character necessary for a successful, productive life. Today its 280-acre campus in the hills of southern Vermont includes a fully operational farm, apple orchard and sugar maple grove, where students gain practical knowledge and apply analytical skills in the farm science program.
