Organic agritourism has become a viable strategy for rural development by combining sustainable agricultural practices with tourism activities to create unique visitor experiences. This article investigates how organic farms can diversify income streams through agritourism by offering immersive and educational activities that emphasize organic principles. It also examines the challenges related to managing organic rural properties and promoting organic products effectively. The qualitative literature review highlights best practices for enhancing visitor engagement, maintaining organic certification standards amid tourism demands, and leveraging direct marketing opportunities. The findings suggest that organic agritourism not only increases farm revenue but also plays a critical role in fostering environmental awareness and supporting rural community sustainability.
