Supporting farmers that are
and feeding communities in need.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
While food system challenges span policy and environmental issues, our work is people-focused. We support local farmers and communities without access, knowing that people shape the future of our land and food.
OUR MODEL BREAKDOWN
PEOPLE-BACKED SUPPORT
Community donations support local regenerative farmers.
FOOD WHERE NEEDED
Cost and geographical barriers are broken down as real chicken and eggs are made accessible to those who would otherwise go without.
BUILT FOR IMPACT
A sustainable system that prioritizes health, dignity, and long-term change.
WHAT PROBLEM DO WE SOLVE?
Big Ag’s market control puts local farmers at risk. Underserved communities are surrounded by subsidized processed food and lack access to nutrient-dense protein foods.
STATISTICS ON THE POULTRY INDUSTRY
RETAIL CHICKEN SALES
Controlled by industrial producers, including Tyson and Perdue.
CONSUMER-FACING LABEL
Retail chickens are industry-defined, often obscuring how the food is actually raised.
WHAT IS OUR SOLUTION?
We break down accessibility barriers and distribute fresh, pasture-raised meat and eggs from local regenerative farms directly into food deserts. By connecting farmers with communities that need access most, we're building a food system that nourishes both people and the land.

Feed the Land is a 501(c)(3) organization on a mission to sustain regenerative farmers and eliminate food insecurity.

We target two beneficiaries— eaters and growers. Donations serve two at-risk populations. We’re also going to be the biggest (maybe only) NP that delivers not only pastured meat (which is uncommon) but eggs too!
Everything we do is designed to take total care of our two beneficiaries in the FTL programs. Donor dollars are used to remove practical barriers to sustainability. For example, covering the cost of hosting farmers at farmers market so they can sell to the surrounding community without paying a “set-up” fee. Or covering distribution channels to get boxes sent directly to the hands of folks of underserved communities who don’t own cars or are otherwise limited in transport. -
People-backed farming support is our way of framing a conscious effort to redirect the dollar of the people away from Big Industrial Agriculture and into the hands of local organic farmers who are doing things the right way. Local organic farmers represent the crop of farmers who grow food according to consumer values. To sustain and protect the farmers that grow our sustenance, it takes real dollars that directly support, encourage, and increase the access of local organic foods.

The name is intentionally broad. Everything comes from the soil—it's where our food originates and where everything returns. "Feed The Land" captures a reciprocal relationship: if you feed the land and the people, you get something wonderful back. Soil is the center of ecology, and caring for it is vital to our health and existence.

The term regenerative captures a type of farming that respects nature's law of reciprocity-- giving back what you take out. Soil is the true source of nutrition for humans, animals and plants and it is where everything returns-- It's cyclical. Regenerative farming hinges on three core principles: soil restoration, biodiversity, and farmer prosperity. "Regenerative" is the opposite of "conventional", which is operated through a model of forced extraction-- using cheap and synthetic chemical inputs to extract food, using soil as a dormant platform and ignoring its health.
