Farmers own this company. 

Farm Generations is a multi stakeholder cooperative; we are owned by our farmer member-owners and employees.

We follow this unique cooperative structure because this business is fundamental to the success of our members farms and future livelihoods. 

After seeing farm after farm contend with tech companies working against their interests, our farmer co-founders decided that a new direction was necessary. 

Following in the footsteps of farmers, workers and disenfranchised people across the globe, we incorporated Farm Generations Cooperative as a new and strong foundation for the future of small farms. 

Our goal was to produce the best technology that would forever serve the interests of the farm community; our farmers have a voice in the very systems that they need each and every day. 

In 2023, the cooperative's board voted to invite our employees to also be minority stakeholders in this journey. We are presently in the process of inviting employees to join the company as member-owners.
