As Bill mentioned, VPN is the method I would use. If you want
(almost) turn-key hardware, I recommend Linksys VPN routers such as:

Depending on geography and terrain, you could install a wireless
bridge system and keep the network private.
DD-WRT supports bridging routers in several different ways. See:

You would need compatible devices such as the WRT54GL, outdoor
enclosures, antennas and cables.
Again, if you want more of a turn-key solution, EnGenius offers a
relatively inexpensive line of outdoor wireless hardware.
