Leadership Person County with the Roxboro Area Chamber of Commerce spent the day exploring the people, places, and passion behind Person County’s agritourism industry! 🌾🐃🍇

From learning about buffalo at Sunset Ridge Buffalo Farm to experiencing local wineries like Rock of Ages Winery and Tunnel Creek Vineyards, plus lunch at Flat River Cafe and a visit to The Land at Hawkins Loop - the day highlighted the incredible experiences that make Person County so special.

We were proud to help coordinate and support this year’s Agritourism Day, creating opportunities for local leaders to experience firsthand the farms, wineries, businesses, and destinations

Thank you to all of our hosts for sharing your stories, hard work, and hospitality while helping showcase the impact agritourism has on our community.
