We seen firsthand over the last couple of years just how hard it is to make a living in agriculture today.Over the last decade, we've lost over 100,000 farms, and we're losing more every year.It's not that people don't want to shop directly with farms. It's just not very convenient. Consumers are spending more money with large corporations and less with their local farmers.People want quality food. They want to know where their food comes from. They want the ability to support local farms.That's why we created Red Hen.Red Hen is an app that makes it easier than ever to buy directly from farms. Farmers can list their products, set pickup, delivery, or shipping options, and customers can place an order in just a few clicks.Investing in Red Hen means investing in a future where buying directly from farmers is easier, more accessible, and more impactful.It's a chance to help keep farms in business, strengthen local economies, and put food dollars back where they belong—in the hands of real farmers and real people.Together, we can create a food system that works for farms, families, and communities.Whether you're passionate about supporting farmers, building a stronger local food system, or looking for an investment that creates real impact, we'd love your support.Thank you for believing in this vision with us.Let's make it easier than ever to buy from farms again.
