Farms
The Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts has been the heart of New England agriculture since colonial times. On Mount Major's Bike Farm Table Weekends we'll meet the people who continue to farm this fertile valley. The crops that we pick at these farms will be the backbone of our harvest feast on Saturday evening.
