Farm Business Accelerator Participant

The Foodshed Project Farm Business Accelerator is a 3-year program offering beginning farmers an alternative entry point to establishing a successful farm business. We provide a bridge to business viability for those with existing farm skills through low-cost access to everything needed to manage a successful farm business: land, water, infrastructure, technical support, marketing assistance, mentorship, and business education through CSU Extension’s Building Farmers program.

The Accelerator Program is designed for vegetable and crop farmers with farming experience and an interest in establishing their own farming business. Eligible participants must be able to show evidence of farming experiences and be able to describe a compelling vision for a farm business of their own.
