What To Expect From South Dakota's Agritourism Adventures Passport

In South Dakota, agriculture is responsible for so many things that make the Mount Ruhmore State great.

And now you can add one more - tourism.

Travel South Dakota has added Agritourism Adventures to its Passport Program to show visitors the agricultural side of the state. The new passport is designed to connect visitors with farms, ranches, and rural communities across South Dakota.

It features 40 check-in locations statewide, encouraging visitors to explore agriculture through hands-on experiences, local products, and one-of-a-kind destinations.

Participants can visit a variety of agritourism destinations, including working farms, creameries, flower farms, and other agricultural attractions.

Stops include:

Back Forty Beef Adventure Farm and Corn Maze - Pierpont
Blue Tin Ranch - Burbank
Dimock Dairy Products - Dimock
Farm Life Creamery - Ethan
Flourish Flower Farm - Elk Point
Hydeout Agritourism - Highmore
Good Earth Farm - Lennox
South Dakota Tractor Museum - Kimball

The Agritourism Adventures Passport is part of the broader Travel South Dakota Passport Program, which uses a mobile platform and rewards system to encourage exploration of destinations across the state and offer a deeper connection to South Dakota’s landscape and economy.
