Greetings from Fresh Start Farms! This is the last week of the Localvore share & the last week of the 2020 farm share season. Thank you so much for your support!
The growing season has come to a close and the Fresh Start farmers are taking a much needed break before the 2021 season planning starts in earnest. Soon they will start crop planning, seed & supply purchasing, attending workshops, and preparing for a fruitful upcoming season.
The Fresh Start Farm team is busy reflecting on the 2020 season and planning for an even better year in 2021. Lots of new things on the horizon - a new plot of land, retail space, a farm to school program, and even a new baby for one staff member!
We want your feedback on the Localvore share. Please complete the end of season survey so that we can continue to improve & provide the best possible member experience!

We are a collective brand for immigrant and refugee farmers participating in the New American Sustainable Agriculture Program, a program of the Organization for Refugee and Immigrant Success. We work alongside new American farmers to bring farm fresh ingredients to your table via neighborhood farm stands, farmers markets, our FarmShare, wholesale and through NH Farm to School.
Twenty-three new American farmers make up Fresh Start Farms. Nine farmers are part of the New American Farmers Co-op and grow at Our Farm on Story Hill in Dunbarton, NH. An additional 14 farmers, the Umoja Farmers, grow on land at the St. Paul's School in Concord, NH.
All producers in the Fresh Start Farms collective implement organic practices. While not certified organic, the farmers grow nutrient dense produce without chemicals and in a way that promotes healthy soil, habitat, and environment.
We speak 13 languages, represent 7 countries and grow over 50 different varieties of produce!
