The 5th Annual Ventura County Farm Day will take place Saturday, November 4, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at farms throughout Ventura County. Farm Day is a free self-guided tour in which over 20 participating Ventura County farms open their doors, enabling the public to learn about agriculture firsthand. Farms feature a number of family-friendly activities, free produce, tours and food and beverage samplings.
