WHERE: Apple Tree Hill Organic Farm, Route 43, Hancock, MA 01237
OPENING HOURS: Registration opens at 7:30am and closes at 11pm.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON ARRIVAL TIMES:
We have gotten a number of inquiries about when people can arrive for the Festival - including asking if people can come in on Thursday night and camp at the venue the night before the Festival begins. This poses a serious logistical and operational hurdle for us. As a solution we have contacted the Privacy Campground in Hancock. MA (approximately 2 miles down the road from the Festival on Route 43). If you wish to arrive in Hancock on Thursday night they can accomodate campers from the Fest. The charge is $19.00 per camp site (for 2 adults - $2 extra per additional adult and $1 per child). If you do decide to camp there you must make your arrangements in advance. The campground's office closes at 9pm but they can make arrangements for you for later arrival only if you call in advance. Please call 413.458.3125 to make your reservations.
