Located north of Lexington next to Newtown Pike, Iron Works Road and Georgetown Road, North Farm resulted from merging Maine Chance Farm, Spindletop Farm and a portion of the Coldstream Farm.
North Farm’s 2,400 acres provide many teaching, research and extension opportunities for the faculty, staff and students of the Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment. The facility’s research revolves around initiatives, projects and programs in veterinary science, animal and food sciences, plant and soil sciences, biosystems and agricultural engineering, equine science and entomology. North Farm provides outstanding resources for extending the classroom for many students through field trips, laboratory exercises and employment opportunities.
