Giving

At Route 1, we are working to increase food access and decrease the racial hunger divide by empowering, encouraging, and educating emerging farmers across the upper Midwest.

​

With your support, we can expand education and market development opportunities that give emerging farmers the knowledge, resources, and connections to not just grow their business, but help their communities thrive by providing locally grown, culturally relevant, sustainable produce.

​

Consider a gift today. Your support will go directly to the Route 1 Emerging Farmers Institute to educate the next generation of small farmers, assist Route 1 farmers with land access, equipment, and bringing their products to market, or to our Harvest Hope effort to bring locally grown, nutritious produce to food shelves across the Twin Cities.
