Farm to Fork
At our company, we are passionate about providing our guests with an unforgettable experience that goes beyond mere sustenance. We are committed to diving deeper into the essence of what Farm to Fork truly means, and discovering the stories behind the food we serve.
Our belief is that understanding the origins of the ingredients we use, and the stories of the farmers and chefs behind them, transforms a meal from a simple act of nourishment into a deeply fulfilling and memorable occasion. We strive to educate ourselves continuously about the origins of the amazing food that grows in this valley, and to share that knowledge and enthusiasm with each and every guest.

Heather (Owner)
After a long career in commercial photography, particularly in the corporate sector, I founded SacTown Bites in 2019 to embrace a slower pace of life and connect with my community through food. As a passionate advocate for the Sacramento area’s culinary delights and the artisans behind them, I launched food tours that offer diverse experiences, including street food and mural tours, wine and cider tastings, lavender farm visits, and high-end chef’s menu tastings. With my extensive background in photography and management, I am excited about the future of my small but impactful business.

Megan
Megan began giving tours of the U.S. Capitol as a college intern in Washington DC. While her career has taken her on a path to serve non-profits, her love for traveling and exploring places’ history, art, and food scenes has only grown over the years. After being a frequent tour attendee during her travels; she decided to jump back into giving tours and share many of her favorite spots and history within her own city with you. She’s lived in Sacramento for almost 15 years and is still amazed by the new places she discovers in the region. Megan’s favorite things to do include spending a relaxing evening on one of our many pup-friendly patios like Revolution Wine or Canon. Or getting outdoors on a hike with the pup along the American River Trail or up into the hills in the Auburn State Recreation Area.
