SMALL-SCALE FARMERS:
TRANSFORM YOUR FARM INTO A FARM HUB
We help small-scale farmers earn a full-time income from their farms by transforming their farms into Farm Hubs.
Get our free guide on The Farm Hub Blueprint: 13 tactics we used to turn a 1/2 acre market garden into a $200k business.
In four years and with just two people we turned a 1/2 acre market garden into a $200k business...
And we accomplished this without:
- Access to a large market (population less than 20,000)
- A hoop house
- A nursey
- BCS tractor
- Owning land
- A traditional CSA
- Farmer's markets
- A physical farm store
- Wholesale accounts
- Employees
- Volunteers
- Wage subsidies
- Grant funding
- Taking on a ton of debt
How is that possible?
We turned our farm into a Farm Hub.
And if we can do it, so can you.
Each month, we work with 10 farmers who want to transform their farms into Farm Hubs through our Farm Hub Mentorship Program. We’re only looking for the best-fit farms.
Once spots fill up the doors will be closed until next month.
This is for you if…
- You currently operate a farm business or plan too.
- You want to become a local food leader in your community.
- You care about growing your local food system — not just your own farm.
- You want to become a reliable sales channel for other local farms and artisans.
- You want to make eating local easier and more accessible.
- You've read The Farm Hub Blueprint or watched the video and are ready to go all-in on the Farm Hub Model.

- You want to shoehorn the Farm Hub Model into your existing model.
- You aren’t willing to learn the skills required to run an online farm store.
- You have no money to invest in your business.

From Farms To Farm Hubs
After running the numbers, Emily and Nathan realized that a 1/2 acre market garden alone wouldn't provide a sustainable income for both of them. This realization led them to develop the Farm Fub Model. By their second year, they had generated $108k in revenue, and by year four, they reached $200k. Today, they both work full-time on their farm with no need for off-farm income.

feed the north - smitHers, british columbia, canada
Michone had almost given up on her dream of farming. She had tried running a CSA in the past, but it was too much work for not enough money. She was a natural connector in her local food community and was already offering workshops and garden consulting. When she learned about the collaborative Farm Hub Model, she knew she was the perfect person to start one in her community.
Four weeks after launching her Farm Hub she sold five Farm Credit Memberships and was generating $6k per week in revenue.
