North Carolina Agritourism Limited Liability Law
The State of North Carolina provides legal protections for agritourism operators against certain liabilities associated with inherent risks of farm-related activities. Enacted to promote agritourism as a vital component of the state’s agricultural economy, this law offers safeguards for farmers who open their properties to visitors for activities such as farm tours, u-pick operations, and educational experiences.
Under the law, agritourism operators are shielded from liability for injuries or damages resulting from inherent risks of agritourism activities, provided they post appropriate warning signs on their premises and adhere to specific requirements outlined in the legislation. This legislation aims to encourage farmers to embrace agritourism opportunities while ensuring the safety of both visitors and farm operators.
