Support a Stronger Mid-Atlantic Grain Economy
Your gift helps farmers thrive, strengthens regional supply chains,
and grows equitable markets rooted in soil health and community resilience.
Why Your Donation Matters
A vibrant regional grain economy doesn’t happen by accident. It takes farmer training, market development, research partnerships, and community-driven coordination across the entire grain value chain.
Your support fuels this work.
Thanks to Donors like you, CGA can:
Strengthen farmer viability through technical assistance, workshops, and fair market access.
Build inclusive and transparent supply chains that connect farmers, millers, bakers, brewers, distillers, and food hubs.
Advance regenerative growing practices that improve soil, protect waterways, and support climate resilience.
Champion historically excluded communities across the grain value chain.
