The Philippine Farms Orientation Program: Planting the Seeds of Agritourism
The Provincial Tourism Office successfully conducted the Philippine Farms Orientation Program: Planting the Seeds of Agritourism, in partnership with the Department of Tourism – Region III and the Bataan Farm Tourism Agriculture Cooperative.
The first part of the activity focused on the introduction of farm tourism, covering the following topics: The Basics of Farm Tourism, Farm Tourism Value Chain, The Farm Tourism Development Act of 2016, and Accreditation Standards for Farm Tourism Sites.
The second part highlighted Farm Tourism Services, providing participants with insights into three key components: The Farm Tour, Farm-to-Table Concept, and Farm Stay. These discussions emphasized the different ways agricultural activities and resources can be transformed into meaningful and enriching tourism experiences.
