Bike the Barns 2023

9/17/23

Join us for FairShare CSA Coalition’s 15th annual Bike the Barns!

Bike the Barns is FairShare’s largest fundraiser. Proceeds from the ride benefit our organization and the Partner Shares Program, which help low-income families access farm-fresh veggies from a CSA farmer near them.

The event features farm tours, gourmet local food, craft libations, on-farm activities and live music. Join us as we bike to ensure food for every family!

Riders can expect gorgeous country roads, picturesque barns, natural areas, and scenic vistas around Dane County. The ride will start and stop at Badger Prairie County Park in Verona, Wisconsin. The short route will be ~35 miles with two farm stops. The long route covers ~55 miles with four farm stops.

This year’s farms are:
1) Crossroads Community Farm
2) Farley Center for Peace, Justice and Sustainability
3) Prairie Bluff Farm (long route only)
4) Snug Haven Farm (long route only)
