Chris Edwards of Mayflor Farms and Chef Maricela Vega of 8ARM are a perfect example of farmer-chef partners.
Georgia Organics farmer members have two upcoming chances to grow their businesses with support from our farmer services team.
Our Farm to Restaurant program is accepting applications for its second farmer cohort, where we assist small-scale, local, and organic farms in planning for the restaurant market. Through this program, Georgia Organics hopes to help diversify cohort farmer revenue streams and, ultimately, increase the sustainability of their farms.
Additionally, we’re also taking applications for our new Farmer Fund Accelerator program, which will combine tailored on-farm investments with a customized coaching program to help selected farmers grow into a more financially sustainable operation more quickly than usual.
