The Rappahannock County Annual Farm Tour is a free, two-day, self-guided tour offering a behind-the-scenes glimpse of our working farms. The mission of the Rappahannock County Farm Tour is to present an unforgettable, educational and enriching experience of Rappahannock County's (Agri)Culture.
The majority of your donations goes directly to advertising and promoting the Farm Tour each year.
Each year we have around 15 venues on the tour, with a wide range of farms and experiences - from beekeeping to organic vegetable farms and orchards, not to mention goats, chickens, and cows, breweries and wineries, local artisans selling their wares, and food trucks sourcing from our local farms. The event draws anywhere from 2000 - 3000 farm visitors each year, many from Rappahannock and neighboring counties, as well as others coming from Northern Virginia, DC and Maryland to experience the event.
It's a great opportunity to go behind the scenes and see real, working farms surrounded by the pristine beauty of Rappahannock County. Rappahannock County's early settlers were small farmers; officially founded in 1833, it has long been deeply rooted in agriculture.
More information, including a list of farms and venues, as well as the experiences they offer, can be found on our website: RappFarmTour.org (we will be finalizing this year's farms and venues by the end of May). This year's Farm Tour is September 28th & 29th!
