The West Virginia Forest Farming Initiative invites agritourism and hospitality businesses to help bring Appalachian forest heritage to life for their guests—and to be recognized for their contributions to sustainable agritourism across the Mountain State.

Whether you operate a lodging site with trails, gardens, or forested areas; an outdoor recreation or nature-based business; a forest farm; or a retail space that features responsibly-sourced forest botanicals, your participation helps share the story of West Virginia’s rich woodland traditions.
