2010 Foodie-to-Farm Tours

–Exciting food adventures with farmer-led field walks, tasty sampling and a catered lunch! Take the tour over 50 of Buffalo’s top chefs have taken!

We love that what started three summers ago as a way to connect chefs to our local harvest has become an annual series well-attended by our region’s top chefs, but also by foodies, health practitioners, nutritionists, culinary students and everyday people interested in seeing another side of Western New York. It is no surprise that Western New York’s 8,000 farms (most of which are small and family-owned) are a major contributor to our regional and national food supply. In addition to a large dairy, maple and produce industry, we are also home to two wine trails, talented artisan foodmakers and farmers raising a variety of livestock. Each of our farm tours include, farmer-led field walks, sampling, a remarkable local-centric chef-prepared lunch and lots of food talk.
