Farm Facilities
Access to land and equipment is a major challenge for new farmers, who tend to lack both the start-up capital necessary to purchase their own farms, and the experience needed to make a wise investment. FarmStart’s farm facilities help new farmers to overcome that challenge. At our facility in Brampton, new farmers receive access to the land, infrastructure, and equipment they need to raise crops and livestock and to process and market their products. Participants in our programs may remain at our farm facilities for up to five years.
By granting access to land and equipment at reasonable rates, FarmStart’s farm facilities allow new farmers to postpone major investments in land and equipment until their businesses start generating profit. The incubator model also helps participants to build the skills and knowledge that they need in order to make sound investments.
