D Acres farm is located in the rural area of New Hampshire. The Mission of the farm is to function as an educational center that researches, applies and teaches skills of sustainable living and small-scale organic farming. Striving to improve the human relationship to the environment, the center functions as a demonstration farm to role model exemplars of healthy living. Sharing a communal living situation, individuals come to respect and share values of interdependence and love of nature. In addition, the organization supports educational activities directed toward improving the quality of life of residents and the larger community.

Work exchange resident program

Residents are willing workers, motivated to experience the realities of living and working communally at a small-scale organic farm and education center. Residents have a committment to living sustainably and generally come to the program with experience practicing these skills. The residential program is designed as a hands-on practical experience in farming and sustainable living. Although there is no set curriculum, individuals participate in the seasonal duties pertinent to the farm operations. They receive instruction and supervision as necessary in the day-to-day workings of the homestead. In addition to the scheduled required hours, all members of the community participate in basic tasks such as meal preparation, community meetings, and housekeeping in the community building.

All residents are required to sign a waiver releasing D Acres of New Hampshire, Bet Realty (the organization that owns the land and buildings) and the Trought Family from any liability for injury.
