of Agriculture and Commerce Andy Gipson hosts episode ten of the Genuine MS Podcast. In this episode, Tourists Flock to the Farm, Commissioner Gipson explores the Mississippi agritourism industry. Special guests include Genuine MS members Jo Lynn Mitchell of Mitchell Family Farms in Collins, Michael May and Mikayla May of Lazy Acres in Chunky, and Neal Williams of Williams Family Farm in Wiggins.
“Agritourism is an important and growing sector of agriculture in Mississippi,” Commissioner Gipson said. “Visiting a farm or staying on one for a weekend getaway can be fun, entertaining and educational. There is always something new to learn about where our food and other agricultural products come from.”
