Keene State College is within walking distance of the downtown area and about a 20 minute walk to Gathering Waters (98 S. Lincoln St) where classes start each day.

A buffet lunch is provided daily under the tent at Sophia's Hearth (700 Court St). It is prepared by the Monadnock Food Coop. We strive to offer a variety of foods knowing everyone has their own taste and preferences and we won't be able to please everyone. Menus are available when underlined.

You are welcome to bring your own food, use our microwave, if needed, and still join the full group.
