OUR TEAM

A team united in the pursuit of improving the food system.

Farther Farms traces its origins to the rural potato fields of northern India.  Since the foundational research began in upstate New York in 2016, our team has grown to include people throughout the United States and around the world.

In addition to our full-time team, our partners, supporters, mentors, and families have made invaluable contributions to Farther Farms' culture, progress, and learnings.
