"By getting students, local businesses, and other residents outside on their bikes and face to face with farmers, we hope to raise awareness of this growing local-food scene and get people excited about the sustainable agriculture happening in their own community," according to organizers.
The event also served as a fundraiser for farmer Dayna Burtness of Laughing Loon Farm who lost almost $20,000 worth of crops and equipment due to summer flooding.
