Tour de Farms!


Date: 
July 25, 2010 - 10:15am - 2:00pm

This Sunday the Cowichan Green Community is launching our first ever Tour De Farms! – a guided bike tour of some of Cobble Hill’s local food producers. A zero carbon event!  En route there will be opportunity to visit a handful of farms, all of which have farm gate sales to purchase their farm wares.  “Nothing works up your appetite like going for a bike ride, and nothing feeds your hunger like fresh local food” – John Milne, Cowichan Green Community Food Security Mapping Supervisor.  Exercise your legs, pick up some culinary lavender jelly, heritage veggies, a bottle of local wine, and learn about local food culture.

We look forward to seeing you at this Sunday’s Cobble Hill Market, July 25th.  Market opens at 9:00 am, bike tour departs at 10:30, don’t forget your helmet.  Test Your Taste Buds! Will have ongoing taste challenges, and we will have your copy of the Buy Local! Buy Fresh! Map.
