We promote to all Australians that being a farmer is not only possible now, but the career of choice. Because we have pathways for people to own and operate their own farm, we are reigniting the lost dreams of many and sparking new dreams for others. This is powerful. Aspiring farmers often see access toas the number 1 issue holding them back. We remove that barrier and will shepherd a new generation of enthusiastic people back to regional Australia.
Together we build aspiring farmer’s skills to get them farm-ready. While we are hunting for farms we will be finding great education opportunities for new farmers. We want to make sure they know as much as they can and are as experienced as they can be before they jump onto their own farm. The more educated and experienced the aspiring farmer is, the more likely they will be able to get on their dream farm- as more people will be wanting to back them.
We are continually finding farm opportunities for aspiring farmers. Whether this be with a high-net-worth individual who wants to buy a farm with an energetic farming family, with a retiring farmer waiting to back youth, or a great lease opportunity – we are scouring Australia to find dream farms.
The ball is also in the aspirating farmers hands as well. They will be out talking to as many people as they can to find the farm of their dreams in the location of their dreams. Asking retiring farmers, mayors, friends and regional community groups. The more people who know the aspirating farmer is looking, the more opportunities they will find, and we will help them get on their farm.
The traditional model of inheriting a farm or saving for 30 years to obtain a loan isn’t working for the next generation of farmers.
We started Cultivate Farms to provide the next generation of farming families with new pathways to farm ownership to rejuvenate regional Australia and allow more retiring farmers to age on farm.
We match the best next-gen farmers with retiring farmers and investors for mutually beneficial partnerships.
Our joint ownership model eliminates the biggest barrier to farm ownership for aspiring farmers; capital – while providing succession options for established farmers and investment opportunities for those looking to back the future of Australian agriculture.
