Tuning-In to Growth: The NAFDMA Digging Deeper In Agritourism Podcast!

MEMBERS ONLY PODCAST

DIGGING DEEPER IN AGRITOURISM


Why a Podcast?

At NAFDMA, our mission has always been to advance the industry by embracing the power of shared knowledge and experience.   For more than three decades we have done that through farm tours, conventions, and round-tables. The Digging Deeper in Agritourism Podcast extends that same spirit to earbuds everywhere, turning drive-time, greenhouse chores, or an evening walk into continuing education.


What You’ll Hear

  • Operator-to-Operator Conversations – Each episode pairs host Scott & Laura Skelly with a member farm that’s solved a real-world problem: taming October parking lots, pricing U-pick berries, or building a fall-lights walk-through that pays for itself by week two, and many more topics!
  • Marketing in Motion – From TikTok tractors to geo-fenced corn-maze ads, the show surfaces low-cost tactics tested on working farms.


Listen in as these informative conversations take you behind the scenes of NAFDMA farms to learn from their wealth of knowledge. Digging deeper into who they are, their unique activities and specializations, and the aspects of their operations in which they specifically excel.

In the meantime, subscribe, leave a review, and—most importantly—share an episode with a fellow farm who could use a boost. The more voices we bring to the table, the stronger agritourism grows.

Yes, 💩happens…literally! Petting zoos, riding stables, restroom trailers, porta-potties, and did you just say corn maze?!? Eww! But, remember you, yes YOU, make the good 💩happen!

As NAFDMA staff, we know you are in the true thick of fall season in the Northern Hemisphere. Things feel tough, you are worn down, and if one more customer asks *that question* again, you feel as if you are going to lose your mind. It can be helpful at this point to remember where you started vs where you are now. YOU have done the hard work to create a beautiful space for customers to truly make memories. And if you can transform a farm into a place of memories, you can weather whatever storm (literal or figurative) that comes your way. In life, we all start somewhere and use our individual skills, hard work, and imagination to make the world a better place. Just think about how far you have come already...and where you can go. We see you, and we see every bit of the enchantment you create and the exhaustion it causes. YOU are amazing. Photos courtesy of DeBuck’s Family Farm and Lynd Fruit Farm .
