DID you know Iowa produces 1/10 of the nation’s food supply? As the third most productive agriculture state, it is no wonder why agritourism is on the grow.
Groups enjoy exploring Living History Farms, near Urbandale, where they learn about the history of agriculture and rural life in the area, partake in hands-on activities, and even enjoy a dinner at Flynn Mansion after an afternoon engaging in the surroundings.
Delaware County offers a multitude of group outings. “Events centered around the river continue to have success,” said Caryssa O’Connell, Delaware County Tourism Director, “We’re home to the beautiful Maquoketa River, Lake Delhi, and the Midwest’s Longest Whitewater Park.” Adventurous groups love an afternoon of teambuilding in the Maquoketa River at Manchester Whitewater Park, in Manchester. Tube, kayak, or sail group-built boats down the six 18-inch drops, over a span of 800 feet. Local outfitters are able to help build the perfect outing for your group.
