I love an expedition, and Sonoma County Farm Trails offers eight of them. Download their Map and Guide PDF from the Farm Trails web site, and start planning: http://www.farmtrails.org/map-guide/. Pick a region, pick a vendor, or pick a product, and go from there.
The Sonoma Valley region looks inviting (and close – around 56 miles from us). It is also known as the Valley of the Moon, and is close to the ruins of Jack London’s Wolf House. I see several interesting options – an alpaca ranch, several wineries, a farm that offers a tour the first Saturday of the month, another farm that sells heirloom tomatoes at a roadside stand, and an artisan cheese manufacturer.

Searching through the vendor descriptions, I learn more about what they offer – weaving and spinning supplies, CSA subscriptions, puppies, farm stays, eggs, herbs, honey, wreathes, soap, and so on. I could easily shop for the week, and start my Christmas shopping early. And this is just one of the eight regions!
