Book Farm Vacations

Trying out new travel opportunities is your specialty, and you want your next escape to include the great outdoors. How about a farmstay? Unlike other types of getaways—where you often have to leave your accommodation to experience something new—agritourism lets you join in on farming activities from the comfort of your temporary home. Not only will you and your travel companions experience something novel, but you’ll also be benefiting small communities, local farmers, and agriculture at large.

If you’re interested in learning more about food production, visit a working farm that processes crops or livestock. Some locations will allow you to rise with the farmers and try your hand at milking cows and collecting chicken eggs. Traveling with the family in tow? This unique experience of working on a farm will certainly stick out in your children’s minds, and will help them better understand where their food comes from. You may even find yourselves adapting some of the things you learn to your own home!

There are also lodging options that provide less intensive agritourism opportunities, such as farms with corn mazes and petting zoos for your little ones. Looking for a more adult experience? Visit vineyards that provide wine tasting and harvesting opportunities for those of age, or spend time at one of the flower farms that house stunning acres of bursting blooms.

From quaint cottages on the farm to ranch vacations that can accommodate the entire family, there’s something for everyone here on Travelocity. Begin clicking through our impressive selection of farmstay locations today, and prepare to get your beloved boots out of storage—you wouldn’t want to forget them!
