Agritourism: Meet the Farmers

Saw this in Norfolk County in Ontario last week, and thought you could use it, too.

It’s a series of profiles of local farmers and food producers. They worked with local talent to get terrific photos and words. They also have a dedicated site for it, at NorfolkFarms.com.

Once you create quality content one time, you can use it many different times and in many different ways. Create once, use many times, as Sheila Scarborough says.

Let’s see; where all could they use these profiles online?

The dedicated website
The county tourism website
The regional and national tourism sites
As a Pinterest board
As a Flickr photo set and map
As a Google map
As a photo set on Facebook
On Instagram
On Twitter
As a photo set on G+ and Picasa

That’s not even touching the offline possibilities…

Table tents at local eateries
Posters around the county
At each farm, feature the “next stop” on a tour
Maps (Norfolk County does excellent farm maps!)

OK, I’ve listed a few possibilities. What would you add?
