DEVELOPING OREGON’S AGRITOURISM PRODUCT
Given Oregon’s rich history in agriculture and the rise in demand for experiential travel, the state is poised to develop agritourism – a promising niche particularly in rural communities.
Destination Development
OREGON AGRITOURISM WORKING DEFINITION
Agritourism is a collection of visitor attractions based on experiencing the working landscape, including things such as tasting wine on a vineyard, horseback riding at a private ranch, or smelling tulips at the farm hosting the Tulip Festival.
Destination Development
AGRITOURISM DEVELOPMENT 10-YEAR VISION
• Oregon is recognized as a world-class destination for interesting,
educational, fun and life-changing food and farm-based experiences.
• Visitors find diverse, accessible and high quality opportunities to experience excellent food and bountiful landscape throughout the whole state.
• Easy for Oregon visitors to explore, dine and experience life on a farm, and to connect agritourism experiences with other nearby visitor experiences.
• While agriculture remains the primary function of farms and ranches, exposure to visitors through agritourism enhances these operations.
• The success of agritourism brings increased prosperity to Oregon communities.
