National Ag Day

March 22, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Free

March 22 is National Agriculture Day.

Here at Barstow’s Longview Farm, every day is Ag Day.  Agriculture isn’t only our livelihood, it is a way of life. Today we invite you to consider how agriculture impacts your life. Farmers raise fruits, veggies, livestock, trees, and seafood.

In honor of Ag Day, join us for a free walking farm tour at 1pm.

Tour begins at Barstow’s Dairy Store and Bakery on the porch and takes about 45 minutes.  The tour will visit the farm’s anaerobic digester, bunker silo, milking herd, robotic milker, and calf barn. Please wear shoes that can get muddy.

Registration is not required. We are unfortunately not able to accommodate late-comers so please plan to arrive on time! Visitors are not permitted to be on the farm without a guide. Tour is rain, snow, or shine unless Barstow’s Dairy Store and Bakery is closed for inclement weather. We will update our Facebook page with that information if pertinent!

Would like to attend a farm tour at Barstow’s Longview Farm but this date won’t work for you?  No problem, schedule a private tour with us!
