About Open Farms Tours
Nurturing Community
Welcome to 2025 Open Farm Tours, where spending time outside with our farming community is always a great day! We have more farms than ever participating this year with our Friends & Family pass good for a weekend of touring. This year we've divided the days up with the South County tours on Saturday, Oct.11th & the North County Tours on Sunday, Oct.12. People can tour farms both days from 10 - 4pm.
All the farms on our tour implement sustainable agriculture practices and grow organically. We're fortunate to live in a region that has so many farms that grow high quality produce. Farming has the most variables of any profession. Sustainable agriculture and building relational wealth is at the core of what Open Farm Tours is about. The reality of the Covid virus and climate change has greatly intensified the inadequacies of our industrial food system and the affects it has on our health & ecosystems. Our focus is always on a broader spectrum of how the relationships we develop with our regional food systems can transition agriculture towards a sustainable future. Organically grown food and healthy soil is the foundation of a healthy planet.
Farms, Food & Families
Open Farm Tours is honored to partner together with CAFF, (Community Alliance with Family Farmers), towards building healthy regional food systems centered around family farms & community. CAFF is at the forefront of advocating for family farms and sustainable agriculture in the state of California.
