Produce
Grow crops, flowers, orchard fruit or greenhouse plants to a standard a buyer will accept.
Learn & earn
Growing is a skill. Selling is a separate skill. We teach both.
FFC ORG participants may earn depending on project performance, production, market conditions and program terms.
Prepare
Sort, grade, clean, portion and package so the product presents well and travels well.
Promote
Build a simple brand, photograph the product and reach local customers online and in person.
Sell
Understand costing, pricing and margin, then explore the routes to market open to your project.

What we do not promise
FFC ORG does not promise guaranteed income, guaranteed jobs, guaranteed health improvement or guaranteed profit. Some projects may include earning, revenue-sharing or selling opportunities, but any such arrangement is set out in the specific written agreement for that project and depends on production, market conditions and program terms.
