TIPS FOR A SAFE FARM TOUR EXPERIENCE

Remember, these farms are peoples’ homes and their livelihoods. Please treat them with respect.

  • Farming happens rain or shine, and so does the Farm Tour!
  • Please leave pets at home (many of our Farms are not dog-friendly)
  • Don’t rely on cell phones – much of our county does not have cell signal
  • Wear appropriate shoes and clothing for the farms – closed toe shoes, no flip-flops
  • Be careful of barbed wire & electric fencing
  • Park only in designated areas on the farms
  • Be careful driving on gravel roads and driveways
  • Reference the Guidebook for restrooms and wifi
  • Beware of Livestock Guardian dogs – these working dogs take their job of protecting livestock very seriously
  • Beware of farm cats
  • Do not pet animals behind fencing
  • Do not feed animals without farmer permission
  • Do not chase animals
  • Please be mindful of your children and our venues’ posted schedules
