 Marijke Dunselman, Founder Agritourism NZ
At Agritourism NZ , our mission is to increase awareness of agritourism opportunities to diversify farm income, increase resilience, and build sustainable agritourism businesses and rural communities. We facilitate this through training programmes, networking, advocacy & research, and marketing.
Agritourism is a growing industry worldwide. It's where agriculture and tourism meet, including a diverse range of experiences that provide opportunities for visitors to connect with primary producers. For farmers, agritourism offers an opportunity to diversify their farm income, build a sustainable business, increase cash flow and become more resilient. Visitors are looking to connect with the land, the people, the animals, and learn where their food comes from. Agritourism helps build rural communities by increasing investment and providing employment. |
