Community Partners 
The Good Farm Fund is supported by the committed volunteer efforts of a wonderful group of community members, food, farm and event businesses. Without them our programs and events would not be possible, and it is their efforts that continue our work every year. Many thanks to all of these businesses for continuing to make our community a vibrant, beautiful place to live.  If you’d like to get involved, email us at goodfarmfund@gmail.com, we would love for you to join us at one of our events.
