Friday, June 21 - Sunday, June 23
JOIN US FOR A WEEKEND OF TOURING THE SLO COUNTY FARM TRAIL
Savoring summer on the SLO Co Farm Trail is what Open Farm Days are all about. Many of our local family farms will be swinging open their gates to welcome ticket holders to tour, taste and learn about our local agriCULTURE.
Demos, tastings and farm tours will be happening along the trail for our ticket holding guests to learn how our food is grown and how products are made here in SLO CAL.
CHECK OUT THE DAILY HAPPENINGS AT EACH FARM BELOW
This family-friendly experience is an up-close chance to learn about agriculture through demonstrations, tastings, and farm tours.
Ticket holders will visit local farms, ranches, producers and purveyors setting their own pace as a self guided adventure along the trail.
Local farms will be swinging open their gates to showcase everything from beekeeping to olive oil production. Local ranchers will introduce you to goats, alpacas, sheep, pigs, and more, while local purveyors will showcase their locally made products using our locally grown.
Relax at picnic spots, shop at pop-up markets, and enjoy tastings of food and potent potables. Places for picnics will be abundant, with local provisions & libations for sale at select locations.
The planning has begun, so follow us along as we will have lots more to share about this fit for foodies, family friendly event featuring our local family farms.
