Agritourism

Madison County has a wealth of agritourism opportunities to indulge in and is a land contrast when looking at the history of agriculture. Although visitors will see remnants of the past tobacco farming with the historic barns that dot the landscape, now the county has more organic farms than any other county in North Carolina. Come check out a working farm or pop by a farmer’s market and enjoy some farm-fresh produce.

Check out a Farmer’s Market

Come get the freshest produce and locally made crafts at these markets! Our proud, local farmers and artisans are here to show off their home-grown and home-made products. Often you’ll be entertained by local musicians as you shop. And, the Marshall setting has access to walking paths, picnic tables and swing sets for the kids.

Visit a Working Farm

Come pick berries, cut your own Christmas tree or experience farm life at one at these amazing Madison County venues. Some of our farms allow visitors to spend the night and get “hands-on” insight with the many chores of maintaining a farm.
