The 2024 National Agritourism Survey is now collecting responses. All agricultural operations that welcome visitors—whether for on-farm direct sales, educational programs, entertainment, farm stays, recreation, special events, and more—are invited to complete the survey.
By participating in this survey, you’ll help us pinpoint the types of support farmers like you require—whether it’s getting business assistance, developing networks, applying for grants, or navigating zoning and liability issues.
