Description:
Plenty! Farm & Fresh Food Pantry presents the 18th Tour de Dirt on Saturday, October 19, 2024 starting and ending at the Floyd Family Campground.

All proceeds from the entry fee go to support Floyd’s own Plenty! Farm & Fresh Food Pantry. Plenty!'s mission is to nourish community and preserve Floyd County traditions by encouraging neighbors to grow and share food while enlivening the greater conversation about sustainable food practices. Bring a jar of peanut butter to donate!
