Mi Farm Network
Connecting agriculture and community for a greener, stronger, and healthier future.
Local Supporting Local - Get Rooted and Grow with Us!
Mi Farm Network sets a direct pathway between agricultural producers in the U.S. and Canada with their community members, enabling direct purchases and offering support through our Three Core Initiative Pillars: Foundational, Supportive, and Advancement. These Core Initiatives promote sustainable farming, strengthen local food systems, provide healthier food options, and support economic growth, all the while embodying the true spirit of “Local Supporting Local” in our home state of Michigan and beyond.
We support independently owned farms, homesteads, roadside stands, CSAs, farmers' markets, and farms that host agricultural events, all offering their own farm-grown products. We value the diverse traditions, techniques, and cultures that shape agriculture, as we also welcome all ideas, experiences, and contributions.
