Olympic Climate Action is supporting the event by providing a Farm Tour bike map and hosting WSU Jefferson Extension director Dr. Laura Lewis, who will be giving short talks about farming in a changing climate. The tour showcases eight amazingly diverse farms, including organic lavender, u-cut flower, vegetable, and raw milk dairy farms, as well as a cattle farm and riding school, organic orchard and tree farm, a sheep farm with herding dogs, and a school with a budding farm program. There will be fun for adults and children alike: farm-fresh food, live music, and lots of family activities at just $10 per carload.
