Marin County Farm Day provides hands-on educational experiences outside the classroom for over 2,000 school children. Over 30 Northern California ranchers, growers, producers, and educators provide interactive exhibits on agriculture, health, farm animals, gardens, and environmental education.
There will be essay and art contests, with awards sponsored by various business donors. The event is made possible by the collaborative efforts of the following agencies: Marin Center/Marin County Fair, Marin County Farm Bureau, Marin County Office of Education, Marin Community Farmers Market Association, North Bay Dairy Women, Agricultural Institute of Marin, Marin County Weights and Measures, and the University of California Cooperative Extension Service/Master Gardener/4-H.
