Do you ever feel the urge to leave it all behind, get back to the land and never set foot in a cubicle again? You’re not alone. For most of us, that’s not a realistic option, but you can get a taste of that dream for a day or two with a visit to this unique New Hampshire homestead. Who knows – maybe you’ll never come back.
D Acres of New Hampshire Permaculture Farm & Educational Homestead was founded in 1997 with the mission of serving as an educational center for sustainable living and organic farming.

Farmers live at D Acres in a communal setting, sharing daily chores, meals, and the ups and downs of farm life.

But you don’t have to commit to communal living to get a taste of farm life - D Acres hosts a number of community events and programs, or you can just drop by for a visit.

The farm also serves as a hostel of sorts, with some private rooms available inside the main house, as well as more communal sleeping space and campsites outdoors.

There’s definitely a counter-cultural bent for the place, so if that’s your speed you’ll fit right in.
