Welcome to Hilltop Tree Farm by Sakonnet River — a unique agri‑educational experience where your stay helps support hands‑on learning in beekeeping, gardening, chicken care, and sustainable egg production. All camping fees are considered donations to fund our educational farm programs, not traditional lodging fees. Upon appointment, guests can participate in our beginner bee apiary course and learn about raising chickens and collecting eggs, included as part of your stay.
Rhode Island may be the tiniest state in the Union, but its charm is immeasurable. With approximately 400 miles of pristine coastline, it offers coastal beauty, historic seaside towns, and New England seafood that rivals postcard scenery. At our farm you’re immersed in that charm with the added opportunity to learn about sustainable agriculture and nature.
This campsite is nestled on a hillside among Fraser Fir and White Spruce trees, just a short walk from the designated parking area.
