Become a FEED Producer

Thank you for your interest in selling to FEED Cooperative!

We source first from our co-op producer-members but work with many many non-member producers, too. Any farm is welcome to apply to work with us!

Membership Requirements
FEED is comprised of 31 Producer-Members and 9 Worker-Members. Farms must be located in Sonoma, Marin, Napa, Lake, or Mendocino Counties to be eligible for membership. Additionally, eligibility requires 1 year of consistent sales and a minimum of $15,000 in product sold per year.
