Full Well Farm: START-UP COSTS

313 East Road Adams, MA 01220

Full Well Farm is a queer owned, no-till farm in Adams owned and operated by Meg Bantle (they/she) and Laura Tupper-Palches (she/ her). They grow vegetables and cut flowers on an acre of land using a permanent bed system that focuses on soil health. They have a 65 family vegetable CSA, a 15 person seasonal flower CSA, and attend the North Adams Farmers Market. They prioritize accessibility to their produce by partnering with local non-profits, and accepting HIP/SNAP, and offering sliding-scale CSA pricing.

In our visit, we’ll talk about what went into getting our farm off the ground in 2018 and take a look at what resources we utilized to apply for grants and loans that made the last four seasons possible. We’ll also talk about our current business plan, the benefits of growing high value crops like flowers and cut greens, and our community partnerships that support our business and make local food more accessible.
