New food shopping app connects farmers with buyers
Run by the Farm Generations Co-operative, the GrownBy website and app are created by farmers — for farmers. Designed explicitly to remove the need for venture capital and to grow a sustainable, profitable food business, the platform helps growers to sell in a number of different ways. Farmers can pre-sell food for pick-up at local markets, sell to other local businesses, manage their community supported agricultural (CSA) shares and any number of other options, depending on what they produce.
Each grower has the option to buy an equity share in the co-operative. Shares provide membership in the co-operative, and the opportunity to earn more through profit-sharing and contributing to the running of the business.
For consumers, the platform provides an easily searchable list of local farmers and allows people to invite farmers they know to join.
