The Arkansas Farm Trail
March 15 marks the opening day of The Arkansas Farm Trail by the Arkansas Farm Bureau Federation! Our own Dogwood Hills Guest Farm of Harriet is part of the Arkansas Farm Trail! The #ArkFT25 passport serves as your guide to discover Arkansas, support local farms and experience fresh food. Grab your passport and let it lead you across the state to see the diversity of Arkansas agriculture! As you visit participating farms, ask the farmer to stamp your passport when you purchase an item. The more stamps you receive, the bigger the prize package! Keep in mind, farmers are at the mercy of the weather. Be sure to call or check the farm website/social media channels before visiting to make sure the farm store is open.
