Open Farm Tours Sea to Sky Farm
Saturday, August 27, 11 – 2
Join us for a food & farm tour of Sea to Sky Farm! Farm owner, Chris Laughlin will be our tour guide & we will be visiting their 19-acre “Sea Farm” location north of Davenport at Rancho del Oso. They also farm in Bonny Doon at their 25 acre “Sky Farm”, that we toured back in January… hence the name “Sea to Sky Farm”. The Sky farm in Bonny Doon was started by Chris & Dana Laughlin on Thanksgiving in 2018. Chris runs the daily operations and she comes from four generations of family farming!
Their farm grows an amazing diversity of CCOF organic produce including butter ball potatoes, sweet potatoes, berries, dry farmed winter squash, numerous fruits, melons, & vegetable row crops as well as culinary herbs and flowers. They are committed to using sustainable farming practices to provide healthy, organic superfoods that they sell at seven farmers markets and numerous locally owned supermarkets throughout the Bay Area.
Sea to Sky Farm seeks to farm the land in a way that is harmonious with nature and the people who work the land. Farming practices include ample use of compost, cover crops, beneficial habitat creation, crop diversity and rotations to ensure the long-term viability and fertility of the land. We’ll be learning about the sustainable ecological systems they use to maintain a healthy environment for both food and soil.
Tour includes tastings, appetizers & beverages that utilize the bounty of their farm!
