If you believe in leaving the agriculture to the farmers, let us change your mind with a visit to Tennessee. Learn the ways of farming from the early Tennesseans at the Agricultural Museum and the Tennessee Museum of Early Farm Life. Visit the heart of the state at the Williamson County Agriculture Exposition Park with agricultural events all year-round. Become an expert in the field of agriculture at the West Tennessee Agricultural Museum. Visit the home of the award-winning Wilson County Fair at the James E. Ward Agricultural Center. Learn the art of making milk and ice cream at the Mayfield Dairy Farms Visitor Center. Farming is as old as the world and as current as the bowl of fresh apples on your table. Experience the excitement of rural life at the Tennessee State Fair or at one of our city, county or regional fairs.
The Tennessee Department of Agriculture promotes agriculture through fairs and expositions. Today more than fifty fairs are held each year throughout the state, and more than three million people attend.
Forget planning and start tasting. Select one of our pre-planned trips and experience Tennessee agritourism.
