SLO County Farm Tours and Agricultural Experiences

Looking for a farm experience near you? See what's growing at Apple Farm Inn & Restaurant! With dozens of San Luis Obispo county farms to explore, we've partnered with FarmsteadED to bring you into a world of locally grown flavor. The first of its kind in California, the convenient, self-guided concierge station offers all the know-how you need to enjoy seasonal agritourism experiences in San Luis Obispo County, including interactive events geared toward connecting folks like you with real life farmers, ranchers and makers.

Partake in hands-on farm tours designed to give you a front row seat to the freshest seasonal finds in San Luis Obispo County—and be amazed by the extent of our bounty! Our prolific growing region produces not just award-winning wine grapes, but also vibrant citrus, creamy avocado, juicy heirloom tomatoes, premium olive oil and so much more. From buzzing beehives and bucolic walnut groves to handcrafted charcuterie enjoyed amidst ancient barns, you'll taste what's ripe, right now. While a stroll through our many local farmers' markets provides a fantastic springboard for education and enjoyment, these hands-on agritourism offerings are truly designed to transport you directly into the field, ranch or production facility.

Where will our agricultural experiences take you? Roll up your sleeves and see where our seeds are sown, beef is pastured and crops are cared for. Home to a unique array of microclimates, learn about the sun, soil and terroir that make this growing region so special while meeting the faces behind the scenes. Truly, there's an agritourism to satisfy every interest: Dive into sustainability and biodiversity practices while sampling fruits and veggies, enjoy hands-on classes in goat cheese making or get all the dirt on how to grow your own home spa garden. Whether you shake up your own cocktail imbued with fresh-plucked herbs, meet the local cows and chickens or savor an ultra-seasonal feast under the stars, Apple Farm Inn is sure to bring you closer to your next bite.
