On Farm Day, over 10 Santa Barbara County farms, ranches and agricultural organizations open their doors to the public.
Sponsors are being sought for the 5th Annual Santa Barbara County Farm Day taking place Saturday, September 23. On Farm Day, over 10 Santa Barbara County farms, ranches and agricultural organizations open their doors and invite the public to experience a day of free agricultural activities, tastings and tours.
Santa Barbara Farm Day is presented by Students for Eco-Education and Agriculture (SEEAG), a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that provides cost-free agricultural education programs about the importance of farming and farm-fresh foods in Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.
"By sponsoring Santa Barbara County Farm Day, individuals and businesses help connect and educate the community about local agriculture and the food supply chain," says Mary Maranville, SEEAG’s founder and CEO. "Farm Day is also a way to say thank you to the men and women who grow the food we eat every day.”
