BLYTHEWOOD – Three Blythewood area farms will participate in Richland County’s inaugural AG + Art Tour, June 26-27.
The tour will feature not only working family-owned farms and their produce, but local artisans and musicians as well, many of whom will be performing at the various farms.
The tour features some of the beautiful farms and products that the Richland County rural area has to offer, according to tour officials.
Eleven farms throughout the county will be open for touring on Saturday from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Sunday from 1 – 5 p.m. The tours are free.
Visitors can begin their self-guided tour at any of the farms. The day is meant to be leisurely and enjoyable, so it will probably not be possible to see all the farms in one day.
Bring a cooler with an ice pack and pick up some fresh veggies, let the kids enjoy a hay-ride and barnyard animals, watch artists at work, and enjoy a day in the country!
Food, drinks and treats will be available for purchase at many of the farms.
At the first site they tour, visitors can register and pick up a tour booklet that will serve as a guide to the various farms and their offerings.
