Walk 1

Immersive Theater Final Project for Mr. Bechtold's Theater for a New Era Course at Amethyst Brook.

Please *download* this walk before arriving on site. LOCATION Park at the old Hitchcock Center lot, adjacent to the Common School. Hit play when you're in front of the sign for the Kevin Chase Dimock Memorial Trail, right at the head of the boardwalk. BEFORE YOU BEGIN This is to be done on your own time, at your own pace. There is no suggested path or sequence you must follow. We recommend a meditative pace for your walk. If you came with a friend, you might wish to go your own way for much of your time. Stay within the blue perimeter marked on the map above. There are many voices in the show. When you hear new music or a voice in your headphones, it is typically a sign for you to stop and take in the environment around you. If you continue to walk, you might overlap with other voices. Explore the territory freely, but stay on all paths. SHOW CONCLUSION When you are ready, the conclusion will take place in front of the Blue Barn at the bottom of the Bramble Hill Farm road. Look for the blue circle on the map below. You may access the Bramble Hill Farm road from the woods at the small rectangle on the map below. Look for a yellow playhouse nearby as a marker when you are there. RETURNING TO THE PARKING LOT While facing the Blue Barn, if you follow the path to its left you'll find a boardwalk trail just around the corner that will lead you back to the parking lot. TECH TIPS If you don't hear anything through your headphones, double-check your volume first. If there's still nothing, use the menu in the upper-left corner to stop and restart the walk. This can be done at any point in your venture as needed.

Welcome to the Hampshire College Woods, Farm, and Campus Walk. This walk was conceived of, and created by, the students in a Fall 22 Division I seminar class entitled: Environmental Education: Teaching and Learning about Nature. We hope that by using this GPS-guided walk, you will learn more about the natural environment of the campus and some of the College's sustainability efforts. Although the walk was designed to start at the Farm Center, you can listen in any direction. If you are driving to the start of the walk, you can park at the lot on your left after entering the Hampshire College Farm Center off West Street (Rte. 116). You can download the walk to listen to the audio even if you walk out of wi-fi range and don’t want to use cellular data. If you leave your earbuds in, you can simply put your phone in your pocket and explore without a map. When you enter a zone with information we have compiled, the audio will start automatically. The map is always there if you get lost. Alternatively, you can keep your phone open and use the map to guide you to the next audio-linked location. At each audio-linked location, you will either be prompted to stop and look at a particular spot or continue walking and listen as you walk. As you continue, we invite you to consider that land you walk on today was stolen from the Nonotuck people by white colonizers in the 17th century. The Nonotuck people, and their neighboring Indigenous nations were brutally exterminated by white colonial settlers. Acknowledging that we reside on stolen land is just a first step toward better supporting the Indigenous communities that still reside in the region. It is a way of reminding ourselves about the land we occupy. We know this act alone does not repair the damage done by colonialism; we must do our best to respect this land and the Native people who call it home. We invite you to begin by learning about the history and current state of the land, as a step in building a right relationship with this land. As a guest on this land, what can you, individually and collectively with others, do to repair the harm done by settler colonialism?

Please download this walk in advance of strolling the orchard. Enjoy stories of the land and fourth generation family of bucolic Clarkdale Fruit Farms orchards. Begin at the open flag at the top of the driveway and walk toward the farmstand and big apple. Each new voice or song is an invitation to pause, take in the environment and listen to a story. If you would like to move on, and walk out of the sound pool, that particular story will continue on where you left off if you return to that location. There is no right or wrong way to walk the orchard. Please stay on the paths and mown areas of the orchard. Please do not open any orchard gates. Climbing the drumlin beyond the fence, trees and the sculpture is prohibited. We hope you enjoy this labour of love and share your thoughts with us!
