Tour de Farms

Tour de Farms
Sunday, Sept. 15, 8:30 a.m.
The Tour de Farms, a celebration of local food via a meandering bike tour, is one of Vermont’s oldest and most cherished cycling farm tours. The Tour de Farms visits local farms and tasty treats along the route. The tour returns to Shoreham this year, the town where it began in 2008. Riders will explore two to eight different farm stops, as well as 16 additional local food vendors. The tasty day finishes at 4:30 p.m. at the Shoreham Apple Fest. The tour includes a challenging 30-mile route and an alternative, shorter, family-friendly, 10-mile route. Riders will set out in the morning from the Shoreham Green, located about 40 minutes south of Charlotte, off Route 22A. The terrain includes rolling hills with a mix of paved and dirt roads, so a mountain bike or road bike with wide tires is recommended. E-bikes are encouraged for folks not used to Vermont’s rolling hills. Register.
