Agritourism is a growing industry in Montana.

At Mahlstedt Ranch, agritourism is a way for us to share the agriculture story. By sharing our life and our story, we make friends for agriculture one person at a time. In the current trying economic conditions, agritourism also gives us an added enterprise to help meet rising costs. For us, agritourism is as a way to help keep the next generation on the ranch.

If you are:

• interested in offering Agritourism

• already offer Agritourism

• a member of local, state, or federal government

• seeking a public office

• tourism personnel

• just curious about what we are doing

You can expect information on what Agritourism looks like, the challenges & rewards of offering agritourism, what insurance & waivers are recommended, how legislative decisions have affected those offering agritourism, and get to experience agritourism as we offer it.

Members of the Montana Agritourism Association will be available to talk about how agritourism looks on their operations and how it varies with each operation.
