The 5th Annual Eastern Triangle Farm Tour will be held September 18 and 19 from 1 to 5 PM on both days.
The brochure with details is coming soon, but the map is available now. There will be 24 sites on this Fall’s tour, including eight new farms and two market vendors: Edible Earthscapes and Spain Farm. An educational event and fundraiser for the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association (CFSA), the tour showcases farms with sustainable and humane livestock operations, plus urban mini-farms and community farms so you can see how much can be grown on small plots of land, even in the city!
Load up a car with your friends and family, choose the farms you will visit, and enjoy the countryside! The tour is self-guided, and farms and sites are located throughout the Eastern Triangle in Wake, Durham, Franklin and Chatham counties. Visit any farm in any order. Many farms also will have foods for sale.
Foodies, locavores and everyone looking for a great activity for the family is invited! Visit CFSA’s site for more information and to purchase your “button” for $25 for access to all the farms! You can also visit one farm for $10.
Volunteer one afternoon, and you’ll be able to attend the whole tour for free! Get an inside look at the farms,help out, have lots of fun and get a free t-shirt! Contact Fred Broadwell to volunteer.
