Agritourism / Agribusiness Programming

Do you own a nursery, farm, vineyard, brewery, or other agriculture / land based business?

 

Do you want to demonstrate to families with young children that you value their business?

 

If so, Featherfin is here to help you connect with your valued customers!

​

I myself grew up on a sheep and Christmas tree farm in Augusta County - so I get it! I was so fortunate to grow up playing with and feeding lambs, carrying my dad jugs of ice water during summer tree trimming time, and running wildly through our fields to the large limestone outcropping where I could host pretend concerts on the "stage." 

​

Now think about the people who buy your farm's products or visit your site. Did they grow up on a farm? Have they spent much time in spaces that value agriculture? What about the young children who accompany them? Are they invited and included in learning about how your farm operates? Do the kids get to have fun and play while they are on site? Do they learn about the process of growing and raising while there?​

 

When businesses provide entertainment and engagement activities designed with children in mind, it is a huge draw and a generous community service for families. Families stay longer, spend more, and are grateful for your efforts to cater to their unique needs. Plus, you get to feel good knowing you are helping teach children about what you do and why it is important! 

​

​FUN FACT! Did you know that with proper posted signage, Agricultural Zoned properties are covered against liability claims related to agritourism and agricultural education events? 

If you do not operate in an Agriculture Zone, Featherfin can still provide liability coverage for many activities and sites! Just ask!​
