It’s harvest time and we are thrilled to invite our neighbors and fellow community members to join in through our annual “all-you-can-dig party!”

At various R.D. Offutt Farm locations from sunrise till sunset, those interested can bring potato forks and buckets to a specific RDO field and dig to their heart’s content. This event is free to the public.

Fields will be clearly marked with signage and flags. Please stay within the designated area and be mindful of other people while harvesting. Please dig at your own risk! No equipment or vehicles are allowed within the field – please park in headlands.

Potatoes will be available while supplies last.
