BOZEMAN – The Montana State University College of Agriculture and Montana Agritourism Fellows Program will host a new conference focused on the confluence of agriculture and tourism on Friday, May 3, on the MSU campus. The event will include speakers, educational sessions and networking opportunities for attendees.
The conference, titled “Building Agritourism from the Ground Up: Inviting You to the Table,” will run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Strand Union Building. It is the culmination of a year of collaboration and learning by the first-ever cohort of the Montana Agritourism Fellows Program, which was established in 2022 to engage Montana producers in developing an environment of agritourism in the state. The event is also supported by the Western Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education program, for which MSU has served as the host institution since 2018.
Registration for the conference costs $50 per person and the deadline to register is April 19. A full agenda and registration can be found at www.montanaagritourism.com/events-2-1.
