About 80 people gathered at Bee Heaven Farm bright and early Saturday morning for a bike tour of four Redland farms. The jaunt was organized by
Slow Food Miami.

First on the tour was
Fancy Koi farm, followed by
Going Bananas,
Teena's Pride, and
Bee Heaven Farm. The 7.5-mile ride didn't seem so bad knowing we would be rewarded with food. Chefs Kris Wessel of
Red Light and Kira Volz of
Creek28 were in charge of feeding the hungry bikers, who enjoyed dishes such as Wessel's smoked ribs, Volz's shrimp fatoush, key lime pie, and strawberry shortcake outside on a windy yet beautiful South Florida day.
Here's the day in pictures.
