Tour de Farms
GARFIELD COUNTY, CO – The benefits of bike riding are numerous, better health being one of them. An upcoming bike ride will not only yield the generally expected benefits for 40 riders, but the added feature of instruction on great gardening techniques. It is the Tour de Farms, which is just what it says, a tour of farms (or rather, in-town gardens) on bicycles. Participants will go on a bike ride tour of three public and private gardens in Rifle, and each garden site will have conservation experts who will talk about soil conservation, water conservation and elements of gardening.
