There are almost two million farms in the USA. About 80% of those are small farms, and a large percentage are family owned.
More and more of these farmers are now selling their products directly to the public. They do this via CSA programs,
Farmers' Markets, Food Coops, u-picks, farm stands, and other direct
marketing channels. Would you like to support your local farmer? Use our map to find a small farm near you!
Large scale chemical agriculture is poisoning our soils and our water, and weakening our communities. By buying direct from a
family farm you can help put a stop to this unfortunate trend. By buying organic produce
from your local farmer, you are working to maintain a healthy environment, a vibrant community, and a strong and sustainable local economy
for you and your kids to thrive in.
