TRACTOR FOOD AND FARMS
About TRACTOR Food and Farms
TRACTOR Food & Farms, a food & agriculture 501c3 nonprofit in Western NC, is increasing access to community-grown food by empowering farmers and consumers alike. At TRACTOR, we prioritize environmentally, economically and socially non-extractive techniques for growing, procuring, and distributing food. We engage a wide variety of distribution programs including Farefield, a fully customizable food subscription service, as well as traditional wholesale and the Healthy Harvest program. Our standard is to serve the same quality product to everyone, whether they are paying customers, a food pantry client, or a small business looking to bring in more fresh mountain produce!
