Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Louisville, KY

Louisville

Eric Burns has kept hives on Eastview Avenue in Louisville's Highlands neighborhood since 2012, selling treatment-free raw honey from a self-serve roadside stand that runs Memorial Day through Thanksgiving. He also handles honey bee, wasp, and hornet removal — humane relocation, not extermination — and sets up most years at the Kentucky State Fair. No middleman: what's in the stand is what his bees made that week.

Begs Honey works out of Louisville under Jeremy Pharris, producing Kentucky Certified Honey and offering pollination services on the side. Pharris also does free swarm removal and pulls hives out of trees and buildings around the city when they turn up somewhere they shouldn't. A private Facebook group tracks when each summer's harvest is ready to sell.

Louisville

Hermitage Farm is a working thoroughbred operation in Goshen, minutes from Louisville, that has produced Kentucky Derby and Oaks winners. Visitors can walk the barns and tour the grounds, then eat at Barn8, the on-site restaurant sourcing from the farm's own gardens and area producers. The estate also books overnight stays and private events, and its guest list once included Queen Elizabeth II.

Rankin Farm is located on 4th Street in the Fairdale area of southern Jefferson County, near Louisville. It's a small operation in a part of the county that's mostly suburban rather than agricultural.

Jeffersontown

Tower View Farm and Nursery sits on Taylorsville Road in Jeffersontown, just east of Louisville in Jefferson County. It combines a working plant nursery with agritourism visits, the kind of stop where you can pick up potted stock for the yard and walk the grounds in the same trip. Jefferson County's mix of bottomland and rolling terrain suits both ornamental and shade plantings, and a nursery this close to the Louisville metro tends to serve landscapers and homeowners alike.

Louisville

Betsy Ramey's property is on Shady Hollow Drive in Louisville's Jefferson County. It appears as a small agritourism entry with no independent website, so what's grown or offered there isn't publicly confirmed. Reaching out directly is the best way to learn more.

Fox Chase

Leonard Davis operates a registered agritourism farm in Fox Chase, a small Nelson County community in Kentucky's bourbon-and-farm country. No product or visiting information is published.

Louisville

Hidden Hollow Orchard and Wildlife Sanctuary sits off Apple Hill Road on the eastern edge of Jefferson County, closer to Louisville's rural fringe than its downtown. The dual orchard-and-sanctuary name points to both fruit growing and animal care happening on the same grounds.

Sellersburg

Kenny Graf runs a u-pick operation on SR 60 in Sellersburg, growing strawberries, apples, and pumpkins across the season. It's listed with regional agritourism directories rather than running its own site, so calling ahead for picking conditions is the best way to plan a visit.

Shepherdsville

A veteran-owned farm and apiary on Old Highway 44 East in Bullitt County, built around pollinator education. Alongside seasonal produce and a few pygmy goats, the farm runs beekeeping classes, school and business pollinator programs, and kids' nature classes — even paint and mural-painting sessions tied to their honeybee conservation art. Visits are by appointment only; reach them by phone or email first.

Borden

Briar Patch Honeybees started up in Borden in late 2022, supplying nucs, packages, hive bodies, and queens to beekeepers across the Kentuckiana region, alongside raw honey for sale direct. The operation focuses on breeding stronger, more disease-resistant bee genetics rather than just selling honey.

Deere Farms is a family-run agritourism stop in Lanesville offering a fall corn maze and pumpkin patch alongside an on-farm market. It runs smaller and quieter than the bigger Harrison County attractions nearby, which suits families looking for an afternoon of pumpkin picking without the crowds.

Joe Huber's pairs a working farm with a family-style restaurant serving fried chicken, ham, green beans, and fried biscuits with apple butter — a meal built for a table, not a to-go box. Guests can walk the farm and feed animals before or after eating, and the property adds pumpkin picking and orchard visits each fall. Open Thursday through Sunday, 11 to 7.

Rayn Swain is a small agritourism operation at 687 Chatman Lane outside Taylorsville, in the rolling farm country of Spencer County. No public website or listing details are available beyond the address on file with state agritourism directories.

Borden

Huber's has grown fruit and made wine on this Borden property across seven generations, with roots back to 1843. Beyond the orchard, the operation now runs a full winery producing dry, semi-dry, sweet, sparkling, and dessert wines, plus a wine club, tastings, and event space — one of southern Indiana's larger agritourism destinations rather than a simple farm stand.

La Grange

StoneLedge Farm is an 80-acre working horse farm on Smith Lane in La Grange, owned and run by Kelly and Fred Bennett about 25 minutes north of Louisville. Beyond the horses, the property hosts events at its barn and rents out farm-stay lodging — a farmhouse, log cabin, and cottage — for guests who want to sleep on a working farm rather than just visit one.

La Grange

Alpacas of the Bluegrass is an alpaca farm in La Grange, in Oldham County east of Louisville.

No public website or listing was found confirming current tours or hours — contact the farm directly before visiting.

Coxs Creek

Old Kentucky Home Stables & Bed & Breakfast sits in Coxs Creek, part of Nelson County's bourbon-and-horse country near Bardstown. The name points to overnight lodging paired with a working stable, though no active website turned up to confirm current bookings, rates, or riding options. Contact the property directly for availability.

Taylorsville

A pick-your-own farm on Little Union Road, marked by roadside signs less than an eighth of a mile past Fairfield's only flashing signal — GPS often gets it wrong. Rows are grass-sodded and heavily straw-mulched, growing thornless blackberries, strawberries, and asparagus, each with its own short picking window. Open Saturdays only, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed Sunday. Bring your own containers; the farm doesn't sell pre-picked fruit.

Nabb

Nabb

Berry Best Farm has grown food in Clark County since 1975, three miles east of New Washington on Highway 62. Strawberries lead the u-pick list, but the roadside stand also carries corn, tomatoes, asparagus, blackberries, blueberries, grapes, peaches, and watermelon depending on the week. It's a straightforward family operation: no corn maze, no hayride, just produce sold close to where it grew.

New Salisbury

Derek and Samantha Bryant, a veteran-owned family, run this USDA Certified Organic u-pick blueberry farm in New Salisbury. It's blueberries only, bring your own bucket, open roughly mid-June through mid-July with some additional days possible — cash and checks only, no cards.

Eyes Blueberry Orchard is a pick-your-own operation off State Highway 1066 near Bloomfield, growing blueberries for visitors willing to bring a bucket and pick their own. Call ahead for picking hours, since the season is short and weather-dependent like any berry crop.

Shelbyville

Gallrein Farms has grown produce and greenhouse plants in Shelbyville for more than 30 years, opening its gates to the public each spring through Halloween. Spring brings U-pick strawberries and a greenhouse stocked with annuals and tropicals; summer shifts to a market of same-day harvested vegetables; fall means a corn maze, hayrides, and U-pick pumpkins. A bakery and cafe run year-round alongside an online shop. The farm also hosts school groups and corporate outings.

Brandenburg

Scared & Cornfused Maze operates in Brandenburg, Meade County, along the Ohio River south of Louisville. The name points to a fall corn maze and haunted-attraction combo, a common pairing on Kentucky row-crop farms in October. No independent website was found to confirm current season dates or ticket prices.
