Description

Local Farm Tours in Wright County: farms that focus on water quality and the environment

The public is invited to two farm tours on May 22, 2021, near Howard Lake and Buffalo. Both of these farms will show how regenerative farming practices can improve water quality and help the environment.

 

The second tour at 1:00 p.m. is at Solar Fresh Produce, which is located between Buffalo and Rockford. At this Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm, Sarah Lindblom works to strengthen the local food community through the use of indigenous farming practices and soil health principles. Primarily a vegetable farm, Solar Fresh also operates a farm store with produce, eggs, flowers, baked goods and more.

 

The first tour starts at 10:00 a.m. at Living Song Farm, which is five miles north of Howard Lake. You must register separately for each tour. Register for that tour here.

 

Sturdy shoes or boots, plus insect and sun protection are recommended. Admission is FREE!
