Regional Agritourism Networking Session 2024
Regional Agritourism Networking Session - Western NY
- Monday, August 26, 2024, 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Join our Networking Session!
Agritourism is a growing niche of tourism. Through this event, we aim to further develop agritourism in Western New York and support farmers in creating and promoting agritourism activities on their farms.
Who should attend? Farmers engaged in or planning future agritourism activities as their primary business or as an add-on to their existing operations are encouraged to participate.
Why should I attend? Experienced agritourism operators will discuss the best practices and opportunities that agritourism can bring to your farm. You will be able to connect with tourism agencies and learn about the resources available through your Extension and Cornell’s Agritourism Program Work Team. This newly established state-wide outreach Team will also facilitate discussions and connections to the national agritourism network.
Speaker List includes:
- Bill Wickham - Wickam Farm
- Creg LaDuca - Visit Rochester
- Amy Machamer - Hurd Orchards
- Sara Emmert, NYS Division of Tourism - I LOVE NY
- Laura Biasilio - CCE Broome and Cornell’s Agritourism Program Team
Additionally, you can enter a raffle to win a prize. Each raffle ticket includes a 10% discount to the Taste NY Markets in Western NY and Finger Lakes Welcome Centers who generously donated the raffle baskets.
