Oregon Agritourism Handbook
Whether you’re a farmer or rancher (or aspiring to be one), have a tourism business that works with farmers and ranchers, or are a budding entrepreneur with no land but an agritourism venture idea, the updated Oregon Agritourism Handbook is for you. This comprehensive document covers many topics that agricultural businesses or operators need to consider and plan for when creating or adding to their business. This handbook covers the agritourism market, how to assess agritourism potential, legal and regulatory requirements, risk management, business planning, marketing, visitor readiness, partnerships and more. Be sure to check out this new resource<https://t.e2ma.net/click/l87mv/x162xs/l4opdi>.

Growing Your Business with Agritourism: Land Use & Public Considerations
It can be challenging to navigate the maze of legal and regulatory permits required to operate as an agritourism business. We’ve worked with Erika Polmar, Oregon Agritourism Network Policy Team Lead & agritourism business owner, to offer a concise yet impactful webinar recording to complement the resources included in the 'Complying with Legal and Regulatory Requirements<https://t.e2ma.net/click/l87mv/x162xs/1wppdi>’ section of the Oregon Agritourism Handbook. In addition to zoning information and county land use policies, Erika shares her personal story of how she was almost subjected to hefty fines and even potential jail time for hosting a farm dinner. Since then she’s become an agritourism policy expert and expanded her business, Plate & Pitchfork<https://t.e2ma.net/click/l87mv/x162xs/hpqpdi>,statewide. Access the webinar<https://t.e2ma.net/click/l87mv/x162xs/xhrpdi> and the handouts<https://t.e2ma.net/click/l87mv/x162xs/daspdi>.

Developing Food & Farm Trails for Thriving Communities
Oregonians have a unique love for our locally-grown food and we love to share it with our visitors, but that love doesn’t stop at our plates, it extends into the agriculture and working landscapes all around us. At this year’s Governor's Conference on Tourism, Oregon’s tastemakers and trendsetters shared how they are shaping the culinary experience into an agritourism experience through food and farm trail development. For a summary of food and farm trail best practices from this panel, read here<https://t.e2ma.net/click/l87mv/x162xs/t2spdi>.
