Core Agritourism Offerings

GLF integrates its core agribusiness activities with leisure and cultural experiences to attract visitors, including investors, students, and the general public.

Farm Tours and Demonstrations: Visitors can tour the farm to see the various agricultural and eco-friendly practices in action. GLF promotes a "zero-waste ecosystem," where guests can see the entire value chains—from poultry, aquaculture, and horticulture production to the conversion of waste into clean energy. This provides hands-on exposure to the 4P (Proactive, Planned, Predictable, and Profitable) model of farming.

The Bistro Franchise: A key leisure element is the Gudie Bistro Franchise. This serves as a market for the farm's produce and a culinary showcase for the products created by the Youth Agripreneurs. The Bistro offers visitors a taste of the final product from the white meat, horticulture, and nutraceutical value chains.

Cooking Workshops: GLF hosts culinary events, such as cooking workshops, that allow guests to expand their culinary skills using fresh, organic produce from the farm, further linking the training and leisure aspects.

Cultural and Business Events

A major feature of GLF's agritourism is its role as a regional and national event venue, blending cultural celebration with business development.

Regional Spotlights: Gudie Leisure Farm hosts "Regional Spotlights" which are exciting, multi-day events that promote Uganda's regional cultures and business potential. These events typically feature:

• Cultural Immersion: Tours of cultural villages, traditional dances (like the Acholi pot dance), songs, skits, and a feast of regional cuisine (e.g., Busoga and Acholi food).
• Business Symposiums: Insightful discussions, conferences, and exhibitions focused on investment opportunities in specific regions, helping to link local agripreneurs to markets and funding

Cottage Industry Conferences: GLF regularly organizes major business conferences focused on specific cottage industries (e.g., Poultry, Horticulture, Aquaculture, Savings and Loans Associations). While business-focused, these draw a diverse crowd, creating a vibrant atmosphere where the agripreneurs network, exhibit their products, and celebrate their progress, which forms an attraction for external stakeholders.

By positioning the farm as a center for Gudie Agri-Tourism, GLF generates revenue for its operations and creates a critical marketplace and learning hub for the youth it trains, allowing them to showcase their produce and skills to a wider audience.
