Agritourism farm a resource for other operations

Like any farm that opens itself to visitors, Mariah and Greg Anderson are always adding new things to keep people coming back.

The latest additions at Triple M Farm: Mariah’s Mums & More, more activities for kids and more snacks.

“We listen to what people tell us,” Mariah says.

As many as 5,000 people pour onto the Clinton County, Illinois, farm for Mum Fest in September, which also includes 75 vendors. The event is clearly a star attraction on their farm. The website is already counting down the days, hours, minutes and seconds to the annual event.

Other special events draw people, including National Ice Cream Sundae Day, Jeep Day, butterfly releases, a back-to-school bash, and the Watermelon Crawl.
