Our Mission
Create economic opportunities for local food growers
and connect communities with the economic, environmental, and health benefits of locally grown food.
Community
As a mission-driven marketplace, our first priority is community.
Bringing people together is the focus of everything we do.
Our why
Recent events have shown us the fragility of our national/global food systems.
Unlike big corporations, local food resources (gardens, farms, etc.) are able to pivot in the face of change.

Michigan roots
We’re a small team based in downtown Grand Rapids, and we’re part of Michigan’s local food community, not just observers of it.
We all grew up in rural Michigan, and each of us has a list of favorite farm stands, apple orchards, and beaches (and strong opinions about cider mills). Michigan is the second most agriculturally diverse state in the country and a national leader in food system innovation, and we’re proud to build Farmish here.
Our team helps lead food councils and local food networks across the state, so we see firsthand what farms, families, and communities need. That work shapes everything we build.
