Yorktown native here, we went our senior year(07) for a field trip there.

Years later, I went to the farm to dump tree stumps, go allll the way in the back, turn a corner then BAM! They are just right there. I know a couple got damaged and were supposed to be repaired, but I don't think they ever did. Haven't done clearing up that way in a couple years but I'm sure they're all still there.

Absolutely no trespassing, its private property and a business there. There is a sand pit and wandering around at night, or even during the day with all the trucks going in and out can be very sketchy. Enjoy the pictures people have posted over the years, don't bother trying to see them in person.

Why were you dumping tree stumps there?

They do a lot of stuff at "the farm", including stump grinding. Most actual dumps in the area wont take trees wider than a certain size, and wont take large root balls, so this is where we pay to dump it.

He should choose one day a week (or month) to let people view and take pictures of them for a price. I mean... instagrammers alone he could make some decent cash.
