- 4pm Farm Tour

Bring a jacket and warm clothing. Rain cancels. Times are subject to change.

*Please bring something yummy to share (extra points for using organic, locally grown ingredients). Please label your dish and ingredients used if possible. Also bring your own, plate, cup and eating utensils to help us keep this a zero-waste event.
