This non-competitive ride features routes of 10, 20-, and 40-miles through the lush, verdant countryside surrounding Emmaus. All participants will enjoy breakfast and organic, local-grown refreshments at our rest stops.
The 5K fun run and walk is a rugged course that winds around The Seed Farm's fields. After the ride or run, join us for lunch, Weyerbacher beer, and ice cream from Owowcow back at The Seed Farm.
All participants have the chance to enter a raffle featuring prizes from our sponsors, including gift certificates to South Mountain Cycle and Cafe.
About The Seed Farm:
Making the leap from farm worker to farm owner is difficult --or seemingly impossible-- without the land, equipment and capital to get started. The Seed Farm's 9-month training program gives our apprentices experience in such key areas as management, tractor/equipment use, business planning and marketing. The incubator portion of the program allows training program graduates to start their businesses, building credit, a customer base and skills, while receiving continued support from a community of farmers.
