Spork Food Hub sources exclusively from California’s small family farms. We believe in creating pathways for farmers to reach new local markets, ensuring the survival of small local producers.
investing in a diverse farm future
Creating sustainable growth for new farming businesses is at the heart of what we do. We believe creating new, robust, local markets is the best way forward.
We support farmers from underrepresented backgrounds including women, BIPOC individuals, and first-generation immigrants.
We are driven by a strong commitment to diversity and inclusivity in farming. By fostering an inclusive farming community, we seek to break down barriers and provide equal opportunities for all.
Together we can assure the survival of small local producers, foster economic resilience and communities that thrive.
“Supporting a diverse farming community can help ensure a succession plan for farms. Sharing knowledge and practices ensures small-scale family farms don’t disappear.”
