Abstract:

The Piedmont Farm Tour, now in its fifth year, visits farms that practice sustainable agriculture in Orange, Alamance, and Chatham Counties. Sustainable agriculture is defined as a way of farming that does not erode, deplete, or poison the soil with chemical fertilizers. The tour also encourages the purchase of locally produced food at local stores.
