Printable Map Link Fall 2026- coming soon! Wandering small rural communities, country back-roads and by-ways, and stopping, supporting, and engaging with people along the way is what this page is all about. Bringing awareness to the small businesses and organizations that make up rural Iowa is our focus. The backbone of our communities are the mom-and-pop operations, the Indie artist/crafter, farm to table enthusiasts and more.

They've taken a little break, but we're so happy to have them back on the tour this fall! Eden Ridge Acres is a regenerative family farm in Prole with over 20 years of experience growing food for their family. Nearly a decade of that has been dedicated to growing and raising food for other local families.

They say that "Growing and raising food naturally is one of the hardest things we've done, but there is a deep satisfaction in seeing family tables graced with fresh, chemical-free produce and pasture-raised meats, while fostering vibrant community relationships and knowing we are helping create memories around family tables that champion food freedom and transparency, allowing customers to choose what they consume and enjoy in confidence."
