Why Agritourism Businesses Choose TicketSpice
Agritourism—whether it’s a bustling pumpkin patch, a U-pick orchard, or a summer of blooms and berries—has skyrocketed in popularity as families and friend groups seek out unique outdoor experiences. Managing the operations of these attractions, however, is no small feat. As an organizer, you have to be ready for unpredictable weather, crowd surges and lulls, and an audience of all ages.
That’s where TicketSpice comes in. Designed to give your agritourism businesses complete control over your ticketing process, TicketSpice makes it easy to sell tickets online, streamline entry, and maximize revenues.
But you don’t have to take our word for it; hundreds of real agritourism businesses are already using TicketSpice to grow their event and revolutionize their ticketing process. In this video, we interview six Agritourism customers from all over the country. Let’s hear the top six reasons they love TicketSpice.
1. Keep More of Your Hard-Earned Revenue
Traditional ticketing platforms charge high fees which put a strain on your event budget. Tyler Butler of Butler Orchard shares that they used to start the year “with major negatives in [their] bank account.” It was a huge source of anxiety and frustration. Since using the TicketSpice reservation system, they sell out almost every weekend. Unlike third-party ticketing platforms that hold your funds until after the event, TicketSpice pays you immediately when a ticket is sold.
2. Sell Tickets Online & Slash Long Lines
As Ken Oakes of Oakes Farm puts it, “People hate waiting in line.” With TicketSpice, attendees can purchase tickets in advance online and use a QR code to scan and enter in seconds. Say goodbye to paper tickets, slow manual check-ins, or congestion at the gate.
Plus, as Ken and other farm owners have noticed, when people spend money ahead of time, they’re often more willing to spend money on the farm.
3. Control Your Capacity & Prevent Overcrowding
Managing guest flow is crucial for agritourism businesses, especially during peak seasons like fall, harvest festivals, or holiday light displays. TicketSpice helps manage crowd flow by allowing you to set attendance limits, schedule timed entries, and adjust pricing based on demand.
When Butler Orchard started using TicketSpice, they utilized demand pricing and the reservation system to spread out the crowds. Weekdays would sell out easily, but they promoted weekday visits by offering discounted tickets. The result was a major uptick in attendance and revenue.
4. Capture More Revenue with Upsells & Add-Ons
Revenue doesn’t have to stop with ticket sales. TicketSpice lets you bundle experiences, sell VIP packages, and offer add-ons like hayrides, farm-to-table dinners, or sunflower-picking sessions—all within the same easy checkout process. To top it off, adding extras like merch, coupon codes, or special experiences is as easy as clicking a plus sign.
5. Fully Branded, Easy Ticket Page Setup
While setting up a ticketing page with add-ons might sound complicated, Abby Davidson of Blooms and Berries shares that the process was “easy and seamless” with TicketSpice. She liked that they could still use their original logo and favorite marketing photos, so the ticketing page looked perfectly on-brand. Remember, your customers trust your farm’s brand, not a third-party ticketing platform.
With TicketSpice, you can create a fully custom-branded ticketing page that lives on your website, reinforcing your identity and preventing ticket page abandonment.
6. Easier Cancellations
Whether it’s a dangerous lightning storm during the corn maze or a downpour on the pumpkin pumpkin patch, Agritourism is subject to massive weather changes. Hugh McPherson of MaizeQuest admitted that, while they never hope to use it, the mass cancellation feature has been incredibly helpful. Instead of making hundreds of phone calls, a single click offers everyone a coupon code to use on a later date.
