Agritourism--the practice of attracting travelers or visitors to an area used primarily for agricultural purposes--may be the most dependable cash crop available to modern-day farmers. For those interested in developing their own agritourism project, this book offers an overview of the origins of agritourism and provides useful information on developing an original plan.
