Crowdfunding for Farms
By Megan Vollstedt
Successful Farming
Dan Miller’s motivation to make a difference in agriculture not only stems from his mother’s family farm in the Chesapeake Bay, but also an unconventional source: Washington, D.C., real estate.
They have now funded 16 operations, including a livestock farm in Louisiana, a hemp farm in southern Oregon, and a grain and dairy farm in Pennsylvania. Even with such diversity, there is a common thread among all of the farmers: They love what they do, take care of the land, and take pride in their products.
