The partnership will focus on to increase organic, regenerative farming
Daily Harvest announced a multi-year partnership with American Farmland Trust (AFT) and California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF) to support historically underserved farming communities in California. Together they will work to improve farm viability in the region and expand the acreage of farmland, adopting organic and regenerative farming practices.
The partnership will enable the organisations to continue to advance organic agriculture, promote environmentally sound farming practices, and increase access to organically grown fruits and vegetables, all while centering on equity in the farming community. This commitment toward supporting historically underserved farmers and addressing service gaps will further improve human and planetary health.
Together, Daily Harvest, CCOF and AFT will develop a suite of services, including tailored technical and financial resources for farmers who have lacked access, and support as many farmers as possible in the transition to organic production. By providing educational programming and offering financial assistance, the three organisations will help to address service gaps and meet farmers’ needs. The shared goal to scale up regenerative agriculture within the US farming community can lead to more profitable and sustainable farm operations that are better for humans and the planet.
Together the organisations will equip farmers with the tools needed to be successful in their transition, leading to more organic and regenerative food in the fields and on our plates. Throughout the partnership, Daily Harvest will consider participants as future supply chain partners.
