Our Farm to Plate Dinner Series gives participants a chance to enjoy the flavors of the High Country while learning about local agriculture. Each dinner features local ingredients crafted into delicious menus designed by local chefs. At these dinners, participants hear stories from featured local farmers about their craft and why small-scale agriculture plays such an important role in the High Country.

We are proud to partner with Fair Food Network to help grow a vibrant local food system and inform public policy to address hunger and nutrition while supporting a more sustainable food system.

F.A.R.M. Full Circle is a food recovery and redistribution program of F.A.R.M. Cafe. After collecting food items at risk of going to waste from local sources, volunteers prepare ready-to-eat meals using the recovered foods. The healthy food options are delivered to those in need and are also available on a donate-what-you-can basis at F.A.R.M. Cafe & the High Country Food Hub.

From providing additional markets to on-farm trainings, our producer support offerings are based upon the needs of our community. Since 2014, we have offered a CRAFT (Collaborative Regional Alliance for Farmer Training) program that cultivates meaningful mentor relationships through peer-to-peer farmer trainings and an apprentice link webpage.
