FarmTableDirect connects families directly with local ranchers and farmers. Know exactly where your food comes from, who raised it, and how. No middlemen. No mystery.
Built by a Gem County rancher who got tired of Craigslist.
It's time to change the food model.
"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete."
— Buckminster Fuller
Chemicals and unwanted practices are rampant in the industrial food system. Four companies control 85% of beef processing in the US. When you buy at the supermarket, the rancher gets the smallest cut and you pay the most. Nobody wins except the packers.
Meanwhile small farmers and ranchers are posting on Craigslist and Marketplace next to used furniture listings, trying to reach buyers who want exactly what they raise. The connection exists — it just needs a better bridge.
Two sides of the same community finally connected the right way.
Browse local farms on a map, filter by what they raise and how they raise it — grass-fed, pasture-raised, non-GMO, and more.
Follow specific farms and get notified automatically when they have product available. No more missing out because you didn't see the post.
Order directly from the farm — or use Split & Save to find a neighbor to share a bulk order. Splitting the cost with someone else unlocks bulk pricing that works for both families.
Pick up at the farm, at a local drop point, or arrange delivery. Meet your farmer in person — many offer farm tours so you can see exactly how your food is raised.
Answer a few questions about your operation and our AI writes your storefront for you. Your farm name, story, practices, and products — all in one place.
Post your products with real pricing. Bulk hanging weight, individual cuts, eggs, produce, dairy — whatever you raise. Set your own terms, pickup options, and availability.
Buyers follow your farm specifically. When you have product ready they get notified automatically. No more re-listing on Craigslist every week — your customers come back to you.
Reviews, farm tours, direct messaging — build real relationships with the families eating your food. That trust becomes your most valuable asset.
A mobile-first marketplace built specifically for how direct farm sales actually work — from your own storefront to Split & Save group buying.
Every feature came from real experience and conversations with real farmers and families.
Not a generic listing — a real page with your farm name, story, photos, practices, and products. Your identity, your voice.
Buyers follow your farm specifically. The moment you have product available they get a notification. Consistent customers — automatically.
Can't afford a full quarter beef alone? Find a neighbor to split with. Split the cost with a neighbor and get bulk pricing together — making clean local meat accessible for more families.
Buyers confirm their order with a small deposit. No more holding product for someone who never shows up.
Grass-fed, pasture-raised, non-GMO, flaxseed-free, no hormones — buyers find exactly what they need. Farmers attract exactly the right customers.
Find farms within your radius. See what's available near you right now. Wherever you are, your local farmers are waiting.
We asked the Treasure Valley if they'd use this. Here's what happened.
I even think people would pay a little more knowing they are helping out a local family and rancher. I know I would.
Lord yes! Please. We absolutely would buy from farmers vs grocery stores.
If you can afford grocery store meats you can definitely afford home raised. The quality is not even close.
The main thing I was looking for was the bio of the farmer and a way to message them directly to ask questions.
I don't much like buying my meat under weight from a store just to pay more. This is exactly what we need.
Sounds like a very cool idea — each farm having its own storefront where you can get to know your farmer and build a relationship.
