Bear River Farms ANGEL-Account
Worldwide the agricultural food production is in a difficult situation. On one hand, there is a lack of young people who want to dedicate their lifetime to hard physical work without pay. On the other hand, the machinery that can replace human labor has become so expensive that most existing farms can’t effort it. And those few people who are willing to start a farm and work hard and for free, have not a chance to even go into it. In short, – Agriculture is dead.
Small, widely diversified farms, that produce organic food for local people have become super rare. Those little farms are like little islands or gemstones that become crucial for those consumers that do NOT want to depend on Supermarket chains.
Therefore, a completely new approach on how to start, operate and finance a fully diversified farm is required.
At Bear River Farms we are able to run our day-to-day business, but we need external help to finance major investments like equipment, infrastructure and gear.
We can’t take this money out of our monthly cashflow, we do not believe in Government subsidies, we are too proud to ask for hand-outs and we do not believe in financing as those cost, would increase our already high food prices and would make it impossible for some people to buy from us.
And this is where the Bear River Farms Angel-Account comes into play. The Angel-Account is similar to a saving account. You can deposit Dollars at any time, and you can withdraw Farm products at any time. It’s a food credit in your personal Food Bank.
The funds collected from the Angels are earmarked for a specific project and cannot be used for our day-to-day business. This way Angel-Investors can come, see and touch where their dollars have become materialized.
When the new piece of equipment arrives on the farm and is ready to use, all ANGEL-Account holders will be invited to the annual ANGEL-GATHERING on the farm.
- The new equipment will be demonstrated to the ANGELS
- Each ANGEL’s Name will be put on the new piece of equipment!
- Farm Products can be redeemed.
- A community farm feast will wrap up the event.
The ANGEL-Account is an investment opportunity that creates a win-win situation for the farm and the consumers. By investing into the Bear River Farms ANGEL-Account, you directly create your own SAFE and independent source of food for yourself and your family in very insecure times.
We are convinced that the vision for a better future in agriculture is only possible when consumers start to partner up directly with the farm who supplies them with food. Until then, the Bear River Farms ANGEL Program is a first step in the direction of filling the gap between farm revenue and the real costs of food production.
To open you ANGELS-Account at Bear River Farms, please contact us for the detailed investment description.
We are excited to enter into this new phase of a truly community supported way of Agriculture.
Thank you!
