Bookkeeping

Don’t have time to keep your farm’s financial records up to date?

We get it. But most bookkeepers don’t understand agricultural operations like yours, or their services are too expensive for your scale. Without organized financial records, it’s tough to apply for a loan or identify the best ways to grow.

Our Solution: Free and sliding scale full-cycle bookkeeping services from folks who understand diversified, regenerative farms.

3-Year Pathway

1-year program commitment, with up to 2 optional annual renewals.

Year 1 - Foundation:
Free QuickBooks accounting software & monthly full-cycle bookkeeping services

Year 2 - Analysis:
Bookkeeping services at a sliding scale based on revenue, with opportunity to apply for free software

Year 3 - Transition:
Sliding scale services at a price your business can afford.

What you’ll get: Organized financials, better business insights, and the ability to easily apply for a loan to grow.
