I saw a earlier posting about Agri tourism. I use to think that it was all right to have non farm people out to see how farming worked. As I have gotten older I am not sure that it is a good idea. Too many people today want to tell me how "my farming" is all wrong. I should be doing X Y & Z. It got so that everyone knows how to farm better than me. Even though they have never risk one dollar of their own money trying their loony theories.
So I now DO NOT INVITE anyone out, non family that is. My wife has non farm co-workers that come out for supper and I will not let them go out around the farm. As I have gotten older I don"t have the patience to put up with the idiots anymore. Those of you that want to are welcome to all of the bother.
Also those that do the farm tour type of things need to really make sure they have enough insurance to cover just about anything. Talked to a fellow that has school classes/kids tour his dairy. He was sued by some parent claiming his farm exposed her child to chemicals. Even though it was baseless it cost him ten grand to defend himself. He was still giving the tours. I would not have been.
So are any of you doing the tours??? Any problems???
