Our DayTripper group on Thursday, April 20th ventured to Gilbert & spent the day at the beautiful Agritopia Farms.

 It’s a 12 acre farm created not only to preserve urban agriculture on this land but as a place for the community to gather & enjoy.  All of us enjoyed the farm’s Barnone facility, a community for skilled craftsmen to make & sell their handcrafted goods. We of course loved the wine bar!!

 We ate lunch at Joe’s Farm Grill on a lovely patio.

 Our guide CeCe was excellent & extremely informative & lives in the area. I’m sure most of us would go back. I personally would love to stay the weekend in Gilbert.
