14TH ANNUAL GUIDED FARM VISIT
MONDAY NOVEMBER 8

WHY A GUIDED FARM VISIT?
When evaluating a farm, it is important to know what to look for, what to ask and what really matters. This professionally guided farm visit enables informed eaters and food activists to learn these things. Farmers and ranchers accompany us as well! We all enjoy the opportunity to have rich connections as well as the chance to learn from and appreciate more the successful farmers and others who devote their lives to producing nutrient-dense food.
With our professional guide, Will Winter, we will travel by bus to visit the following farms and have lunch:

Welcome to Circle N Family Dairy where our #1 goal is to keep our cows in the best condition possible so they will provide you with the best tasting raw milk. We are a 3rd generation family dairy started in 1967 where we continue to strive to do our best from milking the cows twice a day to raising the crops to feed them. We invite you to come out to our dairy for a tour (with advanced reservations) and to see for yourself our happy and productive herd. We are open 7 days a week for your convenience & accept cash or check. Always remember to bring a cooler with you. Thank you for visiting our website. Look around and let us know if we can help you with anything.

Our goal is to provide the cleanest, most nutrient-dense food we can for our family and our community. We utilize regenerative farming methods to heal the land we steward and improve the soil health below our feet. We produce pasture-raised eggs, grass-finished beef and this year added pasture and forest-raised pork. This is done with methods that are environmentally sustainable, truly humane and naturally healthy. We invite you to join us in making a difference in your health and community while savoring every tasty bite!
