Food security:  buying farms and converting them to sustainable agriculture.  eco-villages, retreats...  Helping existing farmers to make the transition to more sustainable and cruelty free revenues.

Many are wanting to save animals and donating - to save a few.  Which is great!

We propose that people INVEST in sustainable refarming and wipe out the cruelty forever.  Permaculture is economically more viable than monoculture - in the long term.

Have you heard of “veganic”?  It’s a combination of plant-based and organic.

Agriculture Fairness Alliance is a vegan backed Lobbying Group, who advocates for fairness in US agriculture policy and laws, in order to benefit farmers who practice non-exploitative and sustainable farming practices, to benefit animals, to benefit consumers, and to benefit the environment.  AFA just launched their At Risk Farmers Act, modeled off of Rowdy Girl Sanctuary’s Rancher Advocacy Program.

Advocates for the Farmer, Families, their Land & the Planet

Stories and resources for compassionate farming;

Promoting sustainable, closed loop & vegan organic farming by introducing biocyclic vegan principles in all areas of agriculture & food production.

The International Biocyclic Vegan Network is a broad network of associations, private individuals, companies and institutions involved in agriculture, processing, trade and science, as well as organisations whose mission is to promote animal rights and a vegan way of life. Among them are dedicated biocyclic vegan country organisations established to promote the development of biocyclic vegan agriculture in their respective territories.

Mission Statement

Rowdy Girl Sanctuary (RGS) provides sanctuary to farm animals at risk of being slaughtered and promotes an ethical vegan lifestyle. RGS seeks to educate the public on plant based food options, FFA/4H, factory farming practices, and the devastating impact of animal agriculture on the environment.

Vision Statement

Our vision is to create a palpable atmosphere of communion and acceptance where farm animals, visitors, volunteers, and like minds from across the United States and the world will be drawn to experience our transition from a Texas beef cattle ranch to a vegan farm animal sanctuary. Once here, our purpose will broaden to open all hearts, minds and souls to a vegan lifestyle, the horrors of factory farming, plant based food options, and the devastating impact of animal agriculture on the environment. Our hope is to produce many more animal sanctuaries transitioning from Texas beef cattle ranches to vegan farm animal sanctuaries. Rowdy Girl Sanctuary, Inc. opens its arms to help all farm animals bound for slaughter houses across the country.

Our mission is to help farmers transition their industrial animal-agriculture operations to plant-focused farms raising crops for human consumption.

More and more farmers are seeking a way out of animal farming. Whether they’re fed up with Big Ag’s exploitative contracts or the poor working conditions, they’ve had enough. At the same time, demand for plant-based ingredients is booming, estimated to grow from $8 trillion USD in 2018 to $13 trillion USD in 2025. Credited for this growth is increased demand for clean label ingredients and alternatives to conventional animal products. Companies in all sectors, from food to household detergents to construction, are sourcing more plant-forward ingredients to fulfill their social responsibilities. Transfarmation connects these trends to the goals of fed-up animal farmers to create a better world for us all.

Dairy Farm Transition (DFT) provides new opportunities to dairy producers who want to explore alternative farming enterprises. Our goal is to decrease the barriers to farm-level innovation by paving an independent path forward for your farm in regenerative specialty crop agriculture.

FarmFundr is a farmer-owned, equity crowdfunding platform focused on specialty crop operations in the United States. We offer fractional farmland ownership opportunities to our members.

At FarmFundr we do things a little differently so that our investors can realize as much profit from their farm operation as possible. As part owner in the farmland, you will receive annual returns from the crop sales, in addition to the appreciation from ownership of the land.

Democratizing Investments in Agriculture

Grow your wealth with passive investments in farming and agribusiness.

Agriculture as an asset class provides passive income and a hedge against inflation, and it’s an attractive investment for a diversified portfolio. These investments provide tangible yield derived from naturally produced products with little to no correlation to the overall stock market and lower risk of loss during market corrections, unlike farmland stocks and REITs.
