In what has become an annual farm tour, the 2021 Moore County Farm Tour, planned and organized by Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteers (EMGV), will be held virtually.
The tour allows people to connect with farmers and gain first-hand knowledge of the contributions farmers make to our collective well-being and to the local economy. The tour also highlights the diversity of agriculture present in the Sandhills while teaching our youth where their food comes from.
Because of the pandemic, this year's tour is being presented in a virtual format. With the first tour completed and posted below, we will be posting a farm tour every month through November.
The first tour is of Caroken Farm owned by Carolyne and Ken Davidson. Click on the four-part tour links below and learn about the kiko goats, free-range hens, ducks, and bees roaming their 47-acre farm:Sandhills Farm Tour - CaroKen Farm Part 1
