About:-

Sonoma County encompasses a wide variety of landscapes: from oak-studded hills to flood plains, from redwood groves to windswept beaches. Sonoma County Farm Trails members can be found in all of these places, offering agricultural products with their own sense of terroir: flavors and textures unique to their soil and micro-climates.

We invite you to pick a region or select a product, chart your course and spend a weekend exploring local farms, meeting artisan producers and vintners as you discover Sonoma County’s agricultural bounty.

History&Mission-

Exactly forty years ago this Spring, a group of forward-thinking farmers blazed trails in Sonoma County, creating a map & guide for local agriculture, inviting the public to meet their farmers and learn more about the origins of their food. These pioneers also produced the Gravenstein Apple Fair to celebrate the heirloom apple and Sonoma County’s rural traditions. This was back in 1973, before the advent of Farmers’ Markets, CSAs and campaigns to shop locally. Over the years, some of the farmer members have changed, but the organizing mission has remained the same: to help ensure the preservation of Sonoma County’s rich agricultural heritage.

Founded as a 501(c)(6) nonprofit organization, Sonoma County Farm Trails membership has recently voted to amend our charter. We are in the process of changing our status to 501(c)(3). We hope to further cultivate community by facilitating both farmer-to-farmer and farmer-to-public educational forums, as well as offering relevant events to foodies and aspiring producers through our new "Farm Club" and our upcoming "Barn Shop." We will continue to serve as a local resource, publishing our signature Map & Guide, producing the Gravenstein Apple Fair, and promoting seasonal farm tours like "Weekends along the Farm Trails" in the Fall and "Blossoms, Bees & Barnyard Babies" in the Spring.
