“Consulting is expensive, and it's hard to justify spending money on a farm for anything other than "essentials,” inputs, field labor etc. I realized that consulting can be essential, also, but am certain I wouldn't have prioritized it if I hadn't had a grant to do so. This program has given me a foundation of increased economical sustainability with which to grow on. I have all of the info and tools now to evaluate costs and pricing to be able to confidently scale my farm business.” - Stellar Roots Herb Farm (2025 Coaching Awardee)

“The Accelerator Program grant could not have come at a better time for us. We were in real need of a greenhouse to reduce the cost of seedlings and expand our growing capacity. We are truly grateful for this opportunity to grow and sustain our impact in the community.” - Oyun Botanical Gardens (2025 Strategic Capital Awardee)

“This Accelerator program was very beneficial to us because infrastructure improvements are costly and harder for us to do now. There are very few grants that cover infrastructure improvements so it is incredibly helpful to us to receive this assistance.” - Woodland Gardens (2025 Strategic Capital Awardee)
