Over the past three years, the Certified American Grown campaign has been hosting sold-out dinner events on some of America’s most beautiful flower farms.
Halfway through the third season, American Grown are beginning to look at the opportunities for next year’s tour. A number of farms have contacted them to see what it takes to be on the tour, to let them know they would like to be on next year’s tour or to say they have already applied online.
In the days ahead, Kasey Cronquist will be meeting with the Certified American Grown Council to report on the success of the current tour as well as the plans for 2018. If you would like to have your farm considered for the 2018 tour, you can apply online.
