Agritourism Legal Basics

Explore common questions around the legal issues that can surface when hosting agritourism events on your farm. Thing to note: This is a pdf version of the online resource of the same name, provided for easy distribution to your agricultural community. The pdf uses the old title, “FAQ: Agritourism on Your Farm,” but the content is the same.

Agritourism is a great way to build strong communities while also increasing profitability for the small farmer. This tipsheet explores common agritourism issues including zoning ordinances, employee wages and workers’ compensation requirements, tax reporting and accounting, liability for injuries at farm events, and sales tax and disability accommodation requirements.
