ASAP Farm Tour

Passes are on sale now for this family-friendly local farm adventure!

21 farms participating in the 2024 Farm Tour, taking place Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 21–22, noon to 5 p.m. All farms are located within an hour of Asheville. Tourgoers will experience working farms through guided and self-guided tours, demonstrations, interacting with farm animals, u-pick fruit and flowers, local food and drink tastings, and more. Spanish-language tours will be offered at several farms. The Farm Tour is appropriate for attendees of all ages and abilities. 

Farms on the tour showcase the diversity of agriculture in the region, from vegetables to livestock, orchards to homesteads. Nine farms, noted with an asterisk, are new to the tour in 2024, including six in Polk and Rutherford counties. In the past, Polk and Rutherford farms have been part of the NC Foothills Farm Tour, but this year will be included on ASAP’s Farm Tour instead. The Farm Tour features five geographic clusters to help visitors maximize their time at farms. Tourgoers should select two to four farms to visit each day, spending around an hour at each. Descriptions of farm offerings, plus a map, driving directions, and tour tips, are available at asapconnections.org/farmtour. A free printed guide will also be available in mid-August.
