Farm Tours
2012 Farm Tour Passport (Click Here)
As part of the MFC’s continuing effort to connect you with local farmers and growers, we arrange for several farms to open their doors and fields to the public. Spend the afternoon with your family and friends exploring local farms and speaking with the dedicated folks who run them.
Listed below are the 2012 Local Farm Tours. The Farm Tour Passport contains directions and contact info; pick yours up in-store, or download it by clicking the link at the top of this page. Contact Abbey at 225-0671 ext.25 / scheduling@marquettefood.coop if you have questions.
