Go through a four-way stop and then follow this road down and up
tremendous hills. You will come to another four way stop by the
Congregational Church and a small town green. Follow Route 107 South straight and down another
small hill. At this stop sign you will bear left (it's almost like going

small road called Sidecut Road. Pass Sidecut, staying on Route 53 and take the

have gone too far!) Proceed slowly on Umpawaug and take the second road off to
your right (.4 miles off Route 53). This is
Marchant Road.
New Pond Farm has the first three driveways on your right. We have a white farm
house and yellow barns. Please pull into the third driveway on your right.
