Hardscrabble Farms is the place Greg and his school go to for a week long field trip in the 10th book "Old School". It is the main location of the 10th book. The camp is known to make kids miserable, and even traumatize some, like what happened to Rodrick when he went. A main cause may be the rumored Silas Scratch who supposedly lives near the farm in the woods after supposedly being kicked of his land he had while working at the farm. Silas Scratch turned out to have been a hoax, created by Greg's dad, Frank, to keep people away from a maintenance shack he found in the woods while gathering firewood at the place when he was a kid.

Trivia
- Greg's grade he was in, in the 10th book, at his school, has been going on an annual trip to the place for at least 19 years, since Mrs. Graziano says she has been to Hardscrabble Farms for 19 years. The annual trip for the grade may have started longer ago, since Frank (Greg's dad), and another chaperone (who is unnamed) had both been there as kids, when they were in Greg's grade.
- The supply list for this place includes bug spray, hiking boots, raincoat, canteen, day pack, jeans, plastic bag, sunscreen, toiletries, and wool socks, while junk food and electronics are strictly prohibited.
- The food at Harscrabble Farms is atrocious and from each meal, all the leftover food is scraped into a pot which will create a stew to eat the next day. That method has been used at Hardscrabble Farms for over 30 years.

Silas Scratch, himself, a hoax that is supposedly a guy who worked at Hardscrabble Farms until he got kicked out of the land and supposedly crawls around the place and that it is scary (for some) that he might be anywhere around Hardscrabble Farms.
Albert Sandy talks about Silas Scratch and how he supposedly uses underground tunnels, and that is why he is able to get around so quickly, which scared some people, causing them to decide not to use the bathrooms for the rest of the trip, which was only on day 2 at the time.
