‘A must-read for all of us working to support agritourism – Dr. Patrick Holladay has written the book that agritourism educators have been waiting for. It begins with theories of adult education and quickly moves into practical applications of agritourism assessment, visitor expectations, business management, legal issues, marketing, strategic planning, technology, and sustainability. The book closes with an extensive list of additional resources to help agritourism educators, students, and practitioners apply the lessons learned and tools available to their own classrooms, workshops, and farms.’
