Lace up your running (or walking!) shoes and join us for The Masher Run on Saturday, October 17! Whether you're chasing a personal best or enjoying a leisurely walk with family and friends, every step supports hands-on agricultural education at Food + Farm Exploration Center. After crossing the finish line, stick around for our National Mashed Potato Day Celebration featuring interactive activities, a mashed potato bar, and plenty of potato-themed fun!
Agriculture touches every meal, every family, and every community. The Masher Run brings our community together to celebrate Wisconsin agriculture, promote healthy living, and help ensure future generations understand where their food comes from, the people and innovation behind how it's grown, and why a strong agricultural industry is essential to Wisconsin's economy, communities, and future.
Packet pick up will be Saturday, October 17th from 8:00-9:45am.
Please be aware, t-shirts are not guaranteed after 9/26/26.
The race begins at 10:00 a.m. at Food + Farm Exploration Center and follows a route to Lake Pacawa Park, where participants will complete three scenic laps around the lake before returning to Food + Farm Exploration Center.
Participants are welcome to complete a shorter distance if they prefer.
Strollers are welcome, but please no wagons. We request that you keep your furry friends at home.
