CrowdFarming® is Europe’s leading online marketplace, directly connecting farmers with consumers. We develop the technology and logistics needed to provide consumers with access to the largest selection of organic and regenerative products, straight from the people who grow them.
Our mission is to build the world’s most sustainable food supply chain, ensuring that farmers receive a fair price for their work and that consumers enjoy fresh produce that travels 75% less time than those found in supermarkets.
Since our launch in 2017, we have grown to collaborate with more than 300 farmers across Europe, bringing organic and regenerative farming closer to thousands of consumers.
