In order for us to grow more food, Makaria Farm will be moving from our 10 acre property to a much larger acreage over the next few years. This transition involves installing a well, hydro and irrigation lines, as well as building a fence, packing area, cooler and other infrastructure.
In order to make these investments in our new farm property, we need financing. We have a healthy history of borrowing from individual lenders: to help build our current farm’s capacity, we’ve borrowed $60,000 from private individuals over the years. We’ve never missed a payment and have now paid back the majority of those loans.
To help us develop this new property, we’re now asking anyone who would like to invest in local, organic agriculture to consider making a loan to support this next stage of our farm’s growth.
We can offer 5% interest on loans that are repayable over 5 years. We are looking for individual loans of $5,000 or more. If you would like to discuss this option further, please contact us (Brock & Heather) at 250-597-3276 or makariafarm@gmail.com.
Help us grow even more food with a loan to Makaria Farm.
