Arkansas Farm Trail Passport
The Arkansas Farm Trail passport is your guide to discover Arkansas, support local farms and experience fresh food. Grab your passport and let it guide you across the state to see the diversity of Arkansas agriculture.
The Arkansas Farm Trail features more than 20 farmers, and was created to help people discover where their food comes from. At each stop on the trail, you’ll meet the farm families who grew the food you purchase and create lasting memories as you travel the state.
Beginning March 15, farm passports can be picked up at any of the participating farms or county Farm Bureau offices. You can also download the passport and print it at home.
About the Farm Passport
How it works:
As you visit participating farms, ask the farmer to stamp your passport when you purchase an item. The more stamps you receive, the bigger the prize package!
Keep in mind, farmers are at the mercy of the weather. Be sure to call or check the farm website/social media channels before visiting to make sure the farm store is open.
Rules:
- Passports must be stamped between March 15, 2025 – Nov. 30, 2025.
- One passport allowed per household.
- You MUST be present to get a stamp. If anyone takes an extra passport with them for a stamp, the extra passport will not be stamped.
- Only one stamp per farm.
- The purchase of at least one product is required to earn a stamp at each farm. Farmers are not allowed to give a stamp without the customer purchasing an item.
- Deadline to submit the passport is Dec. 5, 2025. (We will return your passport to you with your prize.)
Things to Keep in Mind:
-
As you visit, share your journey with #ArkFarmTrail25, #ArkFT25, #ArkAg and #ArFB.
-
The description of each farm is based off the primary things they grow. The farmers have more to offer than what is listed in the passport.
-
Email arfarmtrail@arfb.com with questions about the program.
-
All Arkansas Farm Bureau members receive one extra stamp credit for being members after submission. Members must include their member number on their passport to receive their extra stamp. Not a member? Join today!

Tips:
-
See farmer listings inside your passport for expected operating dates/times of each farm store. Again, you should ALWAYS verify the farm store is open before hitting the road.
-
Look at the big map on the first page of the passport before starting any road trip to see which farms are in the direction you're going.
-
Be sure to review the “Icon Legend” to know what products each farm offers and accepted methods of payment.

Apply for the 2026 Arkansas Farm Trail Passport Program: Grow Your Farm Business & Educate Consumers.
Calling all Arkansas direct-to-consumer farmers and ranchers! After a successful first year, the Arkansas Farm Trail is back for its second season — and we’re expanding to add more farms. Are you looking for a unique way to promote your local food business, increase sales and connect with consumers? The Arkansas Farm Trail is a passport program to bring consumers from across the state directly to your farm.
By joining the program, you’ll be featured in ArFB’s Arkansas Farm Trail passport, which incentivizes Arkansans to visit farms and collect stamps to earn prizes. Our hope is that these visitors will learn your farm’s story, purchase your products and learn firsthand where their food comes from.
How does it work?
Customers will have an Arkansas Farm Trail passport that lists participating farms. When they visit your farm, you will stamp the passport at time of purchase. As stamps are collected with each farm visit, passport participants will be eligible for prizes depending on the number of stamps they collect. The more stamps, the better the prize!
Why join the Arkansas Farm Trail Passport Program?
- Boost Your Sales: More visibility means more foot traffic and more sales for your farm.

ArFB’s Arkansas Farm Trail is focused on promoting the production of local foods such as fruits and vegetables, grains and meatanimal products. Value-added products such as jams, jellies and pickles are included as well.
Slots on the 2026 farm trail are limited and may be selected based on several factors including regionality, product diversification and other factors.
The following requirements must be met to be considered for the Arkansas Farm Trail:
- If selected for the 2026 season, the farmer must purchase an Arkansas Farm Bureau membership if he/she is not a current member. Membership is $40 and you can join now or learn more here.
- The farmer must grow/raise and sell at least one food product on the farm.
- The farmer must sell products from a dedicated structure such as a farm stand, farm shop, barn or brick-and-mortar building (sales out of a private home do not qualify).
- Participating farms may continue to sell at other retail or wholesale locations, but customers may only receive passport stamps by purchasing items on the farm.
All participating farms will receive promotional items such as Arkansas Farm Trail signage, passports, displays, t-shirts, hats, etc.
Apply today to be part of the Arkansas Farm Trail passport program, where local farmers meet local customers! Applications will close on Friday, Oct. 17.
