What is FarmToYou?
A year-round online farmers' market — one place to find and buy directly from real farms and food producers across the country. Restaurants, retailers, grocers, distributors, and institutions all source here, connecting straight to the producer with no middleman.
Why buy direct from farms?
Because your customers demand it — and it improves your bottom line. It's easy to buy from distributors, but prices keep rising for buyers while less reaches the farms. Buying direct closes that gap: better value for you, more of the dollar to the farm, and a direct-from-the-farm story your customers actually want. There's a growing movement to buy more direct and regionally when harvests are in season — this is how you join it.
Is FarmToYou a CSA or a food hub?
No. We don't aggregate, warehouse, or resell product. FarmToYou connects you directly with farms and food producers themselves — like an online farmers' market — so you see exactly who you're buying from and buy on terms you set together.
How much does it cost to buy here?
Free to join, free to browse, free to source. No subscription, no catch. Sign up and start connecting with farms and food producers today.
Sourcing made easy
How do I find what I need?
FarmToYou makes it easy to be farm-to-table, whether you're a restaurant, a retailer, or making value-added products. You can source in three ways — whichever suits you:
Submit an RFP — post a sourcing request (product, volume, timing) and every relevant producer sees it and can respond.
Discover farms — browse producers and reach out directly to the ones you want to work with.
Send us your list — email your ingredient list to [email protected] and we'll help you find the farms to fill it.
Need help procuring, but short on time?
We've got you. Our support services can help you source what you need — so even if you don't have the time or resources to hunt down farms and food producers yourself, you can still put direct-from-the-farm ingredients in front of your customers. You know buying direct helps you sell; let us help you get there.
Why use FarmToYou instead of searching on my own?
Because finding real farms on your own is hard. Search and you'll usually hit grocery chains, or a broad directory with no clear way to actually reach the farm. FarmToYou centralizes the search and the communication in one current, reachable marketplace — so you connect with real farms and food producers and buy direct, without the hunt.
Can I plan ahead for the season?
Yes. Our B2B system [Verify: confirm this is the correct current name for the tool.] lets you coordinate planning and harvest contracts with producers in real time, so you can lock in supply for the year and producers can plan their harvest. Stability for both sides.
Who can I buy from?
Farms and food producers of every size, nationwide. You see exactly who you're buying from and why it matters — the story behind the product comes with it.
How does shipping and delivery work?
You and the producer decide what works best for your arrangement — whether it's one-time or recurring. Options include the producer's own negotiated rates, arranged pickup, or parcel shipping through integrated tools. For freight, the producer can request competitive freight quotes from FarmToYou's freight partners through our help desk, typically returned within 24–48 hours.
Can institutions and agencies buy here?
Yes. We work with federal, state, and local agencies, nonprofits, associations, universities, and other institutional buyers.
Can I talk to a real person?
Yes. Reach the FarmToYou team by chat or email at [email protected], and we'll help you get started sourcing. For questions about a specific farm's products, head to that farm's page and use its "Chat with the Producer" button.
