St. John Fisher College is offering a summer field school opportunity at the Dixon Hollow site in Hemlock, New York. This site was a middle 19th  – early 20th century hamlet situated along the Canadice Outlet. The hamlet was occupied by a small number of residents over that time period and was abandoned completely by 1920 after residents sold their land to the City of Rochester. The upcoming field season will focus on a homestead area with a house and what appears to be a barn. Students will have an opportunity to learn surveying, excavation, and laboratory techniques as well as explore the broader cultural context of the site through field trips to area historical sites. The upcoming field season will be our sixth summer session at Dixon Hollow.
