2024 Seminole County Farm Tour – Back again!

What is Farm Tour?

Every year, Seminole County hosts a big event called Farm Tour. This is a fun-filled day where attendees get a chance to visit local farms. Agriculture is important to our daily lives as the farms produce the food we eat. On our tour, we learn all about our local agriculture and how food is grown. We also get a chance to ask REAL farmers questions about their food!

In 2021, we hosted our farm tour virtually and you can check it out on our YouTube Virtual Farm Tour. You can also see a sneak peak of what to expect for the 2024 Seminole County Farm Tour in this video below:

What’s in store for the 2024 Farm Tour?

On the morning of Friday, March 22, 2024, we will embark on a journey through Seminole County Agriculture! At this event, we will be offering a guided bus tour to 5 local farms. We will visit several kinds of farms including a nursery, cattle ranch, a goat farm, and more!

This full-day event is a wonderful opportunity to meet, support, and learn from your Seminole County farmers. This tour includes a tasty lunch and lots of exciting activities throughout the day.

This is a farm tour, so we will be outside driving and walking on a variety of surfaces including uneven and unpaved terrain. Expect to walk around 1.5-2.5 miles over the course of the day.
