For those of you who have always wanted to do a farm tour but just never had time to develop a tour plan, you're in luck! The Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board developed the Wisconsin Dairy Farm Tour Kit, a tool organized to be a quick reference for helping you give a successful farm tour.

The kit was originally designed with school groups in mind, but the information it offers can be easily adapted to fit any touring audience. We hope you find the information and ideas it offers, as well as the other resources we've listed below, helpful in making your tour a positive experience for everyone involved.

The kit is divided into six sections: Why give a farm tour Preparing for your farm tour Talking points Tricky questions and sticky situations Neat ideas Audiences
