It’s time again for the American Farmland Trust, Dine Out for Farms event.

Dine Out for Farms week (Oct. 16-22) celebrates the connection between restaurants and the farmers they source from, while raising money to save farms and farmland. The deadline for restaurants across the country to enroll in Dine Out for Farms is Sept. 30. Please visit www.farmland.org/dineout for more information.
