We love supporting our farmers and the organizations working hard to help them put down roots. 🌱

At Winslow Farm in Falmouth, Maine, farmer Max Boudreau shares how a three-year crop rotation works within a diversified, no-till vegetable system.

We’re always inspired by the people finding ways to care for the land, strengthen our local food systems, and build a more sustainable future for farming. Organizations like Rewilding Capital help make that future possible by giving farmers the stability to invest in land for the long term.

YOU DID IT! 💚

Harvest NOW was a huge success, and we are constantly blown away by the generosity of this community.

Because of you, we can help purchase fresh Maine produce from farmers, get it to our distribution partners, and turn this season’s harvest into food for our neighbors throughout the winter.

Thank you for showing up, giving generously, and believing in what’s possible when we work together.

We truly cannot thank you enough. 🌱

⏰ TODAY IS THE FINAL DAY TO HARVEST NOW!

Our fundraising campaign ends tonight, and we’re making one last push to reach our $10,000 goal to purchase approximately 11,000 pounds of fresh Maine produce for our hunger relief partners.

There is still food in the fields. There are still farmers ready to harvest it. And there is still time to help turn this season’s abundance into food for Maine communities throughout the winter.

If you’ve been meaning to give, today is the day.

👉 DONATE TO HARVEST NOW — link in bio!

Every donation helps us pay Maine farmers for their harvest and get more fresh, nutritious food to our neighbors.

💚 Thank you for helping us make this harvest last.

👩‍🌾 “Looking over the fields at Goranson Farm, we see food grown but not harvested.”

Seeing that food go to waste means margins shrink and future production is put at risk. But the Goranson Farm crew wants to do the work—and they want to see the high-quality, nutritious food they’ve spent months nurturing make it to someone’s table.

That’s where Farms for Food Equity comes in.

FFE helps connect this bounty with neighbors experiencing food insecurity while providing farmers with a return that helps cover the production and labor it takes to get that food to them.

There is food in the fields. Help us get it to the people who need it.

🚨 YOUR GIFT CAN GO TWICE AS FAR!

We have some exciting news: two incredibly generous donors have agreed to match every donation to Harvest Now, up to $5,000!

That means your donation can have double the impact as we work toward our goal of raising $10,000 to purchase approximately 11,000 pounds of fresh Maine produce and help provide approximately 18,000 meals.

There is food in the fields. Farmers are ready to harvest it. Our distribution partners are ready to help process and preserve it for the winter.

Now we need your help.

💚 Give today and make your impact go twice as far!

👩‍🌾 “We started Two Farmers Farm because we wanted to make a tangible positive impact on our community, and Farms for Food Equity helps us do that!”

No matter how specifically they plan, Two Farmers Farm has an oversupply at some point in the season. They’re committed to harvesting everything they grow to prevent food waste—and FFE helps make sure that every leaf they harvest goes to feed someone.

As they put it, getting paid for the cost of production on food that might otherwise go unused helps them stay sustainable.

When you support Harvest Now, you’re supporting Maine farmers AND helping get their food to neighbors who need it.
