What is the Farm to Fork Fun Ride?

The Susquehanna Valley Farm to Fork Fun Ride is a non-competitive bicycle ride where participants choose the distance best for them and stop for chef-prepared bites at farms along the way. Course options for all abilities will range from 10 to 50 miles. For this year's fun ride, riders will be able to choose from a 50 mile "Feast Ride", a 25 mile "Snack Ride", and a 10 mile "Bite Ride." After the rides, participants will return to Forks Farm to enjoy the festival market, which will include a farm-to-table food truck, local beer, and all of the usual Forks Farm Market vendors. Participants can expect rolling terrain in the Susquehanna River Valley.

Forks Farm will serve as the start-finish location on May 30. As owners of the all-grass farm, John and Todd Hopkins rely on the naturally occurring grasses and to feed their animals and return nutrients back to the soil. After twenty-five years of the Hopkins’ stewardship, the farm is more robust than ever, raising grass-fed beef and lamb, free-range chicken and turkey, and woodlot pork.

Get ready for a day filled with culinary delights made from ingredients sourced from the beautiful farms along your route.  During your ride you’ll stop at the farms and enjoy gourmet catered small bites with featured ingredients from farms. After the ride, choose from a selection of farm-to-table food trucks and celebrate with a cold local finisher brew from Marley's Brewery & Grille, included in your registration.
