SUMMARY:Farm Food in the City Tour
DESCRIPTION:How does local organic food come to market in an urban retail space? City Vittles brings foods from Ohio producers to a space on the west side of Cincinnati.

Street parking is also available on Stathem Ave. \nRegister for this free tour here. \nThis event is a part of the 2026 OEFFA Farm Tour Series.
