The journey of launching a farm to sustaining its success demands a highly diverse skillset of a farmer

Farmers must navigate a complex business landscape and have the skillset for not only production proficiency but effective marketing, labor management, record keeping, and financial aptitude. 

Intervale Center’s team of experienced business planners work with farmers at any stage of farm business development. From the beginning of a farm business idea, to transferring an existing farm to new owners, and everything in between, our team meets farmers where they are at. We aim to empower farmers to achieve their business and quality of life goals through planning and skill building.  

 

areas of work that our business planners engage with farmers include: 

 
 

  • Bookkeeping 

  • Marketing

  • Loan preparation

  • Business planning 

  • Financial analysis and coaching 

  • Succession and transfer planning 

  • Land access 

 
 
“Working with the Intervale Center before we even purchased land has launched our farm faster than we could have ever imagined. Our potential feels limitless because of the support, resources and networks we have received from many of their staff members. If you’re not already engaging with them now is the time - your business will thank you for it.”
