It’s not very exciting, rounding aisle 12 to view the endless cartons of organic, cage-free, or omega-3 enhanced eggs. Gazing at ground beef next to chicken thighs next to pork chops in plastic packaging.<\/p>\n

But cresting a lush hillside looking out over fields of cows, geese, chickens, piglets, and working farmers is exciting, we think. And the good people who run this agronomical setting are giving away a one-hour private tour. Four lucky offManhattan readers will get a behind-the-scenes view of the Stone Barns Center’s<\/a> historic buildings, greenhouse, 6.5 acres of outdoor land, and pastured livestock operation. For more information about the working non-profit farm, community-based food production, and upcoming farmers markets and events, visit stonebarnscenter.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n
