Resumo: The paper undertakes an examination of peri-urban agriculture and presents a literature review of the types of tourism associated with it, namely peri-urban tourism and agri-tour­ism. Against this background, a vegetable tourism initiative launched in the Baix Llobregat Agrarian Park (Catalonia) in 2008 is studied. The possibilities presented by such an initiative in relation to the multiple tourist options of peri-urban areas are appraised.
