Bump this up..

I will be there a couple of times in the next month, just back to work for me, so money is tight right now.
How are the tours coming along?
Are you part of Farm Gate, Gates Open?

Hi Max,

Odd, I don't think I got an E- notice of your reply to my post. Anyways... We haven't had too many people come for tours. It's hard getting the word out effectively, and getting people out of their comfort zone/busy daily lives to actually make it for a visit.

As far as I know we're not a part of farm gate or gates open...I'll look into these when I have the time. We are a part of a local initiative called Kawartha Farm Fresh, Kawartha being our region, and are listed on their website. They have a 2 day tour in the fall that is fairly popular. We generally get 50-75 people coming to visit during that weekend.
