RELEASE & WAIVER OF LIABILITY FOR FARM TOURS.
I understand that my participation in a Farm Tour at Northern Roots Farm (the “Farm”) may involve inherent risks of property damage and/or personal injury to myself, others under my supervision or control, or those who accompany me.

This waiver expressly extends to all claims that may result from the negligence or recklessness of Northern Roots Farm of Georgia, LLC d/b/a Northern Roots Farm or its officers, directors, employees, managers, or agents.
I agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Northern Roots Farm of Georgia, LLC d/b/a Northern Roots Farm and its successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees, managers, and agents or the owners or lessors of properties over which the facilities are operated from any costs, liabilities, and attorneys’ fees which may be incurred by it in any claim or legal proceeding I might bring in contravention of this Waiver or in any such claim or legal proceeding brought by a person who is under my control or supervision or who has accompanied me onto the Facilities of Northern Roots Farm. I further agree to indemnify and hold harmless Northern Roots Farm of Georgia, LLC d/b/a Northern Roots Farm and its successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees, managers, and agents or the owners or lessors of properties over which the facilities are operated from any costs, losses, damages, and attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Damages”) suffered or incurred by Northern Roots Farm of Georgia, LLC d/b/a Northern Roots Farm or incurred by or to any persons or property located in or on Northern Roots Farm Facilities, and which Damages arise in any way out of my presence in or on the Facilities of Northern Roots Farm, or the presence of any persons under my control or supervision, or others who have accompanied me onto or into the Facilities of Northern Roots Farm which Damages arise from my acts or omissions or the acts or omissions of any such persons.
