One of Miami County’s favorite Springtime activities is now taking applications for local farers and ranchers who would like to participate in the 18th Annual Miami County Spring Farm Tour. The tour will be held May 8th and 9th. According to the Miami County Republic, more that 1,000 people annually participate in the tour, with most sites having 500 to 750 visitors throughout the weekend.
The tour offers families an opportunity to spend time outdoors enjoying the more rural aspects of Miami County. Always on Mother’s Day weekend, it provides free activities to celebrate the holiday. Each site is encouraged to offer activities for the whole family with an emphasis on providing an educational component for visitors. It’s self guided and celebrates the county’s diversity and highlights local farm products found on the back roads of Miami County. Be ready for horse stables, vineyards, goats, cattle, flowers, fruit and vegetables.
If you are interested in participating, pick up an application at the Miami County Economic Development Office or online at “micofarmtour.com” no later than January 29th.
