Brief Description

The Tour de Farm bike-a-thon is a fun, healthy and educational bike ride organized by the Agricultural Stewardship Association and Saratoga PLAN to raise funds for land conservation and celebrate this special area of the upper Hudson Valley. After riders register, they have the option of creating a fundraising goal and asking their friends and family to support their ride. All proceeds benefit the conservation in this historic region, allowing it to remain a beautiful place to live and ride!

Additional Information

The region surrounding the Saratoga National Historical Park is characterized by vibrant, productive farms with spectacular agricultural landscapes. They have been relatively unchanged since the 1777 Battle of Saratoga, providing an excellent riding opportunity for cyclists eager to enjoy and learn more about this unique historic region along the Hudson River. The 35 mile loop will begin at 9AM and the 15 mile loop will begin at 10AM. Each route has educational stops along the way and a post-ride picnic prepared with fresh ingredients from local farms! Both rides begin and end at Hand Melon Farm. We will ride rain or shine! For more information about ASA or Saratoga PLAN, visit their websites at www.agstewardship.org and www.saratogaplan.org
