Who we are Farm Hack aims to nurture the development, documentation, and manufacture of farm tools for resilient agriculture. We exist as an infrastructure, providing an online platform for community-based sharing and collaborative research. Individuals and organizations, non-profits and businesses alike, are invited to participate and represent themselves.
This same community exists offline in the form of meet-ups, workshops, and build events. We promote local embodiments of Farm Hack wherever interested parties seek to rally under the banner of open-source farm tool development and skill-sharing. We believe that greater knowledge sharing will lead to improved tools, skills and biological insight to achieve our goals with elegance. Open-source seeds, breeds and technology are the fastest way to accelerate the innovation and adaptation.
As a result we are focused on attracting into our community not only farmers but those with other relevant skill-sets: engineers, roboticists, designers, architects, fabricators, programmers, hackers. It is those that live to build and make things work that are the key allies to turn ideas into tools and then into finished products.
By documenting, sharing and improving farm tools, we can improve the productivity of sustainable farming. The result will be healthy land, abundance of fresh food, and invigorated local manufacturing.
Farm Hack is a participatory and cumulative project that is as strong as we make it together. We invite you to join.
