This annual event, typically held during the summer months, offers the public an opportunity to visit a working agricultural operation within a specific Wisconsin region. It involves opening a local farm to visitors for a morning of food, education, and family-friendly activities. The event commonly features a breakfast meal sourced, whenever possible, from local producers, providing a taste of the area’s agricultural bounty.
The value of this gathering lies in bridging the gap between consumers and producers. It fosters a greater understanding of modern farming practices, animal care, and the role of agriculture in the local economy. Furthermore, it supports local farmers by showcasing their products and generating community goodwill. Historically, such events have contributed to increased agricultural awareness and promoted the importance of supporting local food systems.
