About the For Farmers Movement
What we do.
The For Farmers Movement exists to keep small and mid-sized farms alive by providing direct support and raising awareness.
Since 2022, we’ve awarded 190 grants in 46 states, helping farmers:
-
Fix equipment, rebuild after storms, and recover from losses.
-
Add infrastructure to grow and expand.
-
Keep their land in production and their farms thriving.
But the bigger story is how your actions—whether it’s a $1 investment in small farms, a regular market trip, or a grant nomination—equal impactful help for farmers across the country.
Why It Matters to You.
When a small family farm disappears, it doesn’t just affect the farmer. It affects you.
​
It means fewer choices in the grocery store.
It means more processed food, less nutrient-dense food.
It means weaker local economies and communities.
It means an environment that suffers without farmers as its stewards.
​
This isn’t a distant problem—it’s on your plate, in your town, and in your future.
Who we are.
We’re a movement of eaters, farmers, chefs, and everyday people who believe that when farmers thrive, we all thrive.

Founded by Dana DiPrima, For Farmers has grown into a national network amplified by storytelling, events, and campaigns that connect you directly to the farmers who feed us.
