This Saturday you can “Meet All the Hands That Feed You” when Santa Maria Valley agricultural operations will open their gates to the public for Santa Barbara County Farm Day.
That’s the theme for the fourth event that gives the public a chance to tour open farms, meet the owners, managers and workers and learn how the food goes from soil to your table.
From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., the public can experience a day of free agricultural activities for all ages, farm tours, giveaways and onsite farmer's markets as well as hear about the challenges and how their being met from the local farmers. Board Chair and 3rd District Supervisor Joan Hartmann added it is “fascinating, eye-opening and extremely well-organized," and said she learned a lot about Brussels sprouts one year.
“Santa Maria Valley farmers grow produce that is distributed all over the world,” Maranville said. “We’re very fortunate we have the opportunity to hear their stories and see firsthand how the growing process works.”
