Admission is by Car Pass only, making it easy and affordable to attend with a group. Each pass covers everyone in your vehicle. When purchasing your Car Pass, you must select a route. After purchase, detailed addresses and drive times will be included in your ticket confirmation. If you plan to visit all farms on your route, please allow approximately 30 minutes at each stop.

FAQ: Is the car pass good for one person or the entire carpool?

  • One ticket, or car pass, is good for all people riding in your vehicle.

Will I receive my car pass in advance? Is it electronic?

  • You will receive your physical pass the day of the tour at your first stop depending on the route selected. The pass will be hung from your mirror or placed on your dash, and provides access to all five venues.

Can I bring my leashed pets?

  • No. Some locations have farm animals that may not jive well with our pets. Additionally, some of our farms have strict produce safety requirements, and pets on site could hinder their existing certifications. Let's not be the reason why our farmers cannot sell their produce.

Do I need 4WD on these farms?

  • No. The parking areas are either paved or well packed, so any vehicle will be suitable.

What attire should I wear?

  • Whatever you are most comfortable wearing! Close toed shoes are recommended. Sunscreen and hats are highly recommended.

What happens if it rains the day of the event?

  • The show must go on! However, if we receive warnings of thunderstorms, we will ask that you find shelter until the weather improves.

About Slow Food First Coast and Tour de Farm:

Slow Food First Coast was established in 2007 as a 501c3 nonprofit organization committed to strengthening the connection between local food, strong farms and healthy communities on Florida’s First Coast. As the local chapter of an international movement founded by Carlo Petrini in 1986, Slow Food First Coast is a proud member of Slow Food USA and joins a global network of chapters in more than 160 countries worldwide who are working to transform the way we produce, consume and enjoy food. We aim to counteract the effects of fast food and fast life.

We also work to save disappearing food traditions and traditional food products, to help people rediscover the joys of eating, and to understand the importance of caring where food comes from, who makes it and how it’s made. We believe that: the food we eat should taste good; it should be produced in a clean way that does not harm the environment, animal welfare or our health; food producers should receive fair compensation for their work; and that everyone should have access to good, clean, and fair food. We value food produced locally, and recognize its use. We welcome you to become a member or donate to our cause. 

Tour de Farm is our ode to the farmers and their farms in the area, helping people to learn more about where the food on their plate can come from when it is locally sourced. We like to try to make a tour of several farms to ensure some education and fun while checking out some of our beloved agricultural jewels of Jax!
