Inspiration

As a farmer myself, I couldn't find a website to sell our harvest online and started selling my farm goods and neighbours on facebook.

How it works

  1. Farmer goes to the ProduceRun website,uploads photos,details and required minimal sales requirement to make the delivery to town.
  2. The farmer harvest is published on our marketplace for the public to buy, once the minimum amount has been bought the farmer will deliver to town.

Challenges I ran into

The seasonality of markets

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Sold $1458 worth of turkeys in a couple days, 30,000 farmers are registered on our website and raised $75,000 in private investment in our first year.

What I learned

Some farmers aren't very tech savvy so we allow them to fax in there campaign

What's next for ProduceRun

We want to increase the food supply on our marketplace by working with farmers and buyers
