Good Farmer Fund
Information about the Good Farmer Fund, with instructions to donate
The Neighborhood Farmers Market Alliance established the Good Farmer Fund to help our market farmers with direct access to emergency funding in the event of farm loss, crop loss or personal hardship due to flooding, storms and other disastrous events.
The Good Farmer Fund is funded through net proceeds from our annual fundraising event, The Incredible Feast, created by Tamara Murphy of Brasa restaurant, and via private donations and contributions. Donations to this fund are tax-deductible.
If you are a farmer needing emergency relief funds, please call or email the NFMA office directly.
To donate to the Good Farmer Fund, you can click in the donation box (upper right on this page), or make your check out to Good Farmer Fund and mail it to NFMA, 4519 1/2 University Way NE, Seattle, WA 98105. 100% of your contribution goes to the fund - we do not take any portion of it for administrative costs.
The Good Farmer Fund was first proposed by Chef Tamara Murphy of Brasa Restaurant, instigator of our annual fundraising event "The Incredible Feast."
