This year’s program is shaping up to be bigger and better than ever.
“The Small Farms field day is about everything country, tractors, motorcycles, irrigation, farm equipment and animals” said field day coordinator Glen Drury. “We like to keep it simple, so that everyone can enjoy catching up, and finding out about how to grow things better on their block.”
As more consumers develop a craving for local fresh food, a batch of new small farms is finding innovative ways to meet the demand. This rural renaissance is producing more varieties of vegetables, raising goats, sheep and buffalo to produce new types of cheese, or finding creative methods of getting it to market, and this is what the new Small Farms Field Day is all about.
