AgriTourism for Working Farms Tours
Join NC Cooperative Extension and the Small Business Center as we meet five unique farmers in Haywood County. Each farm business has added AgriTourism to increase farm income. These tours are not meant for 'tourists' but rather for working farms seeking to add agriTourism to their existing farm operations. Register for each farm you would like to visit.
Tour One - Smoky Mountain Mangalitsa
Learn how this unique pork production farm pivoted during Covid to add a unique glamping and camping operation on the Pigeon River. In 2021 they diversified into agritourism by offering primitive camping and farm tours. Pork sales soared along with a consistent stream of revenue.
