Everything You Need to Know to Run an On-Farm Airbnb

Building upon my 15 years of experience, I will discuss everything you need to know to set up and successfully operate an on-farm Airbnb. I will also touch upon converting the farm to an event space, as well. Our farm Airbnb was featured in the Fall 2025 issue of the NOFA publication, The Natural Farmer. Our Airbnb’s are unique and consist of a silo, loft, dome, and tiny house. They are solar powered and have several green building features. The old equipment barn has been transformed into a 2,600 square foot event space.

Attendees will learn whether an Airbnb is right for their farm, what’s required and how to get started, important mistakes to avoid, and how to deliver an incredible agriculture-based experience to their guests.
