  • Monday NACDE Tour
  • Wednesday Tour- Delaware Agriculture & Food System Tour (with an Ice Cream Finale!)

    Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how agriculture, education, and community support come together in Delaware’s food system. This guided tour will highlight innovative farming, food security efforts, and the people working to strengthen our region’s agricultural future.

    Our first stop is the Delaware Food Bank Farm, an inspiring model of agriculture serving a greater purpose. Here, crops are grown specifically to support hunger-relief efforts throughout the state. Participants will see how the farm produces fresh, nutritious food for Delaware families while also providing volunteer and educational opportunities that connect people to the land.

    Next, we’ll visit the University of Delaware College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, where participants will learn how research, education, and hands-on training are shaping the next generation of farmers, scientists, and environmental stewards. Faculty and staff will share insights into current agricultural research and how the university partners with farmers and communities across the state. 

    We’ll wrap up the tour on a sweet note with a stop for locally made ice cream, offering a chance to relax, reflect on the day, and enjoy one of agriculture’s most delicious products. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the farmers, educators, and organizations working together to nourish our communities.

    Come curious, leave inspired—and bring your appetite!
