Your gift enables the Global Farmer Network to continue to provide a forum for global farmers to share their stories and a from-the-field perspective with other farmers, consumers, opinion, and policy leaders.
Support the Founding Farmers Fund
For 25 years, the Global Farmer Network has championed one mission: to amplify farmers' authentic voices in critical conversations about food security, technology, sustainability, and innovation. Our 292 members represent 69 countries and one shared identity — they are farmers first, committed to leading change both in their fields and on the world stage. But too often, those global conversations happen without farmers in the room. That must change.
Through GFN, farmers are already showing up — at climate negotiations, food system summits, innovation forums, and platforms local to global. They bring practical expertise and lived experience that no one else can offer. And their presence is making a difference. We have more farmers ready to step forward. But for many, the cost of participation — including travel, visa fees, and time away from their farms — creates a real barrier. That's why we launched the Founding Farmers Fund.
This new fund helps ensure that no farmer's voice goes unheard simply because they can't afford the journey. With your support, we can empower more GFN members to be present, be heard, and help shape a more sustainable, secure, and farmer-centered future.
Now more than ever, it's essential that we equip farmers with the skills to share their stories.
