How it works
WE ARE a Farm Partner for Healthcare & Food Is Medicine Programs IN NEW ENGLAND & BEYOND.
We work directly with healthcare organizations, community health programs, clinics, hospitals, and nonprofits to grow, harvest and deliver therapeutic produce boxes as part of patient care — reliable, Certified Organic, and ready to scale.
1. Program Design
We begin by understanding your patient population, program goals, and funding structure. Together, we determine box size, delivery frequency, and program duration.
2. Box Curation
Each box contains a curated selection of Certified Organic vegetables from our harvest, chosen for variety and nutritional value. Boxes are available in several sizes. For programs serving a specific patient population, such as those managing diabetes or cardiac conditions, we can prepare a uniform condition-focused box for the entire program, designed with guidance from a registered dietitian nutritionist.
3. Harvest and Packing
Produce is harvested and packed on our farm under CAPS+LGS food safety certification, so each box arrives fresh and at peak quality. Delivered within 24 to 48 hours of harvest to preserve maximum nutrient content.
4. Delivery
Boxes are delivered straight from the farm to clinics, hospitals, designated redemption sites, or partner locations for patient collection. Where home delivery is preferred, each box can be individually labeled and prepared for home delivery by a partner delivery/courier service. Home delivery is only available in select regions. Data handling protocols are scaled to meet each partner's compliance requirements.
5. Education and Support
At a partner's request, each box can include our weekly newsletter, which features recipes and menu plans developed by nutritionists and chefs, produce storage guidance, and stories from the farm. The newsletter can be co-branded with your organization. Print & Digital versions are available. A Farm Partner app is currently in development for easy access to weekly recipes, cooking & nutrition information.
6. Reporting
We provide detailed delivery records, including box counts, contents, and value, to support your program reporting and funding requirements.
Recipes & Kitchen Support
At a partner’s request, we can create customized box enclosures — digital and print — written by our in-house chef and a RDN, featuring recipes, nutrition information, storage guidance and stories from the farm, beautifully presented with full-color photography. These materials can be co-branded with your organization.
We bridge the gap between fresh food access and real health outcomes by equipping your community with local, organic produce, recipes, and support to build lasting habits.
