The 7th Annual Northeast Tennessee Farm Tour Day
Gain a whole new appreciation for the beauty, bounty and entrepreneurship of our region.
More than 20 farms will be open for you to make your self-guided tour: pet farm animals, see beautiful places, purchase local products and learn how your food, fiber and flowers (and more!) is grown & raised.
A $25 car pass includes everyone in the car, starting 1:00pm and ending 5:00pm.
Last stop, Jackson Theatre in downtown Jonesborough! Wind down the evening in an open house after party with music, film, and fun, to celebrate our common ground and help benefit the Appalachian RC&D Council. Included in the $25 car pass. (Actually, the party is free for anyone.)
