An event boasting numerous area farms, the chance to learn about local food, and participate in offerings such as tastings and field tours will be held 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, July 16, according to a news release.

The 2023 Rogue Valley Farm Tour is free and open to the public. All participating farms and specific offerings by farm can be viewed here.

“The mission of the Rogue Valley Farm Tour is to increase the overall interaction between community members and local growers in order to garner more support for locally produced food,” the release said. “By providing the opportunity to learn about where local food comes from, how it is grown, and by whom, we can grow community, and in turn, economic prosperity for our area.”

The event is brought to the area by the Ashland Food Co-op, Medford Food Co-op, and the Rogue Valley Food System.
