Harvest Hosts is not being a farm worker & boondocker. It's a program like Passport America, etc. You stay at a winery, farm or other private properties. No work involved.

It's a program like Passport America, etc. You stay at a winery, farm or other private properties. No work involved. Glad I'm not the only one who doesn't understand the question. You pay a membership fee, and get access to a few thousand hosts - typically wineries, breweries, distilleries (notice a trend...lol), farms, orchards, museums, other attractions, and if you pay extra, golf courses. It's a place to spend a night and not be in a WalMart, Cracker Barrel, or a truck stop. Generally a more appealing location. We have used it for three years, and have not had a bad experience yet. The closest to bad that we have come is driving down 12 miles of gravel road in Kansas to a little farm - the hospitality was still good, but I'd pass on the gravel road in the future. To be honest, we knew ahead of time that the gravel road was there. On the flip side, we have stayed at several vineyards, parked on the grass next to the grape vines. Or on a farm, in a field, with no neighbors in sight. Generally, the hosts are friendly and accommodating.

Is a Harvest Host's membership required to camp at most of the places listed on there or something? I agree. I don’t think they do as the places probably have non members stay there. If everyone is willing to buy something then they are more then happy for you to stay.

I don't drink wine and wineries were the only ones offering this back when we were RVing. Knowing I wasn't going to buy any wine made me feel it was not right for me to use their campsites.

Smitty Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 Churches have now begun to join Harvest Host, usually not on Saturday/Sunday nights. As a former Youth Pastor, knowing how churches are struggling with limited and dwindling budgets, this helps generate income however small the donation is left by a HH member. Let's help churches survive. At most you leave your donation in a lock box somewhere outside. I certainly hope towns allow all churches to offer this. It's a win win!
