Join PFI and Okoboji Organics for a tour of their small certified organic family farm that is raising healthy food for local families. We’ll walk through the pastures to visit pigs, chickens and turkeys; look at how the Mendenhalls process poultry on-farm for direct sales; visit the farm store; and share a pulled pork lunch together. Okoboji Organics was certified organic in 2019. REGISTER HERE
Please note: Due to the presence of livestock on the farm, this field day is a biosecure event. Attendees must wear clean shoes or boots, as well as clean clothes, that have not been worn on other farms with livestock or livestock buildings, or around a dense population of wild birds. Full guidelines for attending PFI’s biosecure events are available at practicalfarmers.org/biosecure-event-policy.
