Jackson County, Indiana
Agricultural Tour

Agriculture has long been a major industry in Indiana and especially in Jackson County where the farm community has always played a major role. With assistance from the Jackson County Farm Bureau, we have designed this tour as a tribute to the "living farms" and the people who make them one of our county's most important assets.

We believe that you will find this trip to be an enjoyable, educational and interesting adventure for the entire family.  You will experience everything from the most modern farming operation to the quaint little family farm of yesteryear.  There will also be many animals to observe on the farms as well as in their natural habitat.  As you enter the more rural areas we ask that you drive extra carefully as there may be a deer, rabbit or other creature on the roadway just over the hill or around the next curve.

As you leave Seymour or enter Brownstown we suggest that you check your supply of gasoline, snacks and beverages as it is sometimes several miles between commercial establishments on the southern part of our tour.
You may even want to pick up some picnic supplies to enjoy along side the river at one of the covered bridges, in the picnic area at Starve Hollow or one of the many other scenic places you'll find as you travel through rural Jackson County. 

The tour can be completed in a couple of hours or it can take up to half a day depending upon your interests and the length of time you decide to spend at the sites. We think that you'll find the "living farm" in Jackson County to be one of the more enjoyable, educational and interesting outings anywhere in Indiana. Drive carefully and enjoy scenic Jackson County! To view an online map of the Agricultural tour click here.
