Directions from anywhere

Physical address:
1480 N. 1700 Rd.
Lawrence, KS 66044

We suggest following our directions, though a mapping service (MapQuest, Google Maps, GPS) can be helpful! IMPORTANT: For Google Maps, be sure to include zip code or you may get lost! Read on to determine which directions best fit your needs. Follow directions EXACTLY. It really is closer than you think it “ought” to be! Don’t be surprised if you miss it. We are well hidden in plain sight. Something like 75% of first-time visitors drive right by. If you get to a stop sign on North St., turn around and go back the other way.

Driving from Lawrence/points south:
Go north across the Mass. St. bridge onto North 2nd. Go through 2 stoplights. Look for O’Reilly Auto Parts on the right, and turn onto the street just BEFORE O’Reilly’s (North St. a.k.a. N. 1700 Rd.). Go about 4 blocks east. Just past the trailer court (on the right) you will cross N. 5th St. (also on the right). The farm driveway is just beyond 5th Street on the LEFT.

Driving from I-70:
Take the East Lawrence exit. At the light after the toll booth, turn LEFT onto N. 2nd/ Hwy 40/59 (yes, you are turning towards the city!). After passing the concrete “LAWRENCE” letters on the left, road will veer to the right. Look for O’Reilly Auto Parts on the left, and turn onto the street just AFTER O’Reilly’s (North St. a.k.a. N. 1700 Rd.). Go about 4 blocks east. Just past the trailer court (on the right) you will cross N. 5th St. (also on the right). The farm driveway is just beyond 5th street on the LEFT.

Driving from points north (Hwys 24/40, 59):
Head south into Lawrence, under the I-70 overpass, and through the stop light at the I-70 turnpike entrance road. After passing the concrete “LAWRENCE” letters on the left, road will veer to the right. Look for O’Reilly Auto Parts on the left, and turn onto the street just AFTER O’Reilly’s (North St. a.k.a. N. 1700 Rd.). Go about 4 blocks east. Just past the trailer court (on the right) you will cross N. 5th St. (also on the right). The farm driveway is just beyond 5th street on the LEFT.

Biking/walking from Lawrence:
Come across the walk on the east bridge, and turn right onto Elm St. At Third St., turn north and follow 3rd as it jogs, east on Locust and north in front of the grain elevators and across the tracks. Take any preferred side street before or including North Street (I like Perry or Lincoln) east to 5th Street, turn left on 5th, and go to the end of the road. Jog right then left into the farmhouse drive, or go straight ahead into the drive for the brown barn.

By RoadRunner KCI Airport Shuttle:
At least 2 hours BEFORE arriving at the Lawrence Holidome at WEST 2nd and McDonald, call the City Transit Office at 785-312-7054 to find out when you can catch the Route 3 bus at the posted stop on W. 2nd. Tell the driver you want to transfer to Route 4. Bus fare is $1.

By Greyhound:
Catch the Route 6 bus to downtown and transfer to Route 4. Bus fare is $1.

From City Transit Route 4:
Ask to get off at 5th and Lyon. Walk north on 5th street to North St., RIGHT on North St., and the farm sign and gravel driveway will be visible on the north side of the street just east of the tan cottage and chain link fence, and before the big tan ranch-style house.

When all else fails:
If we are expecting you, drive up and down North Street between 5th and 7th looking on the north side of the street until you find our long gravel driveway and white ranch style house set way back from the road, or until we notice and come flag you down. This is why it’s a good idea to give us as accurate an ETA as possible, bring a cell phone if possible so you can call for further directions, and let us know if you are delayed or not coming after all so we aren’t waiting in vain.
