Our Coop is an expanding community of passionate entrepreneurs, experts, chefs and farmers looking to impact the world starting right where it matters most – our home soil.
What is a coop?
And what’s ours like?
A coop is a democratized legal structure that allows a variety of individuals and businesses to band together to build something bigger than the sum of it’s parts. Without getting overly technical we all share in the ownership and success of the farm all the while leaving the operations of the farm to the various experts in their respective fields.
Membership
Some of our members are also on the board taking care of the management of all things operational, financial and legal for the cooperative as to make the functioning of the farm more efficient and represent the collective who has joined the coop.
Workers

Producers
Producer members are individuals experts or farming related organizations looking to bring their talents to a greater ecosystem but operate their own legal, operational and financial structures which all benefit from the use of the land, farming and the collective storytelling our farm coop provides.
Supporters
