THE ORGANIC FOCUS INTIATIVE

focus mission

We are the catalyst--working to reestablish the regenerative, small-scale family-farm food system while educating and enlisting regenerative-farm consumers.
​

​We provide beginning entrepreneurial farmers and young aspiring agriculture innovators with services that give access to land use and business mentoring as they develop their own farming and value-added agriculture enterprises.

focus goal

Our goal is to drive the growth of an alternative local food economy by building up the next generation of urban gardeners, agricultural entrepreneurs, family farmers, and regenerative-farm consumers.

our why

FOCUS: Fixed On Change Until Success!
Our FOCUS Farming Program supports aspiring farmers and youth innovators who are in need of three essential ingredients to begin their work in reestablishing this food system: Training, Land, and Material Resources.


Slak Market Farm is pushing beyond the limitations and providing the services that would be most helpful in supporting aspiring farmers.
​We have 12 acres just outside of Lexington, Ky., with existing structures and fencing and big plans to restructure our land and facilities to share with others.
There is an existing building on site that will be transformed to become our Focus Farming Classroom & Certified Commercial Value-Added Kitchen.
​It is a place that will be used for educational outreach and programming to stimulate and develop agriculture innovators within our young school-age population and for small-scale family farmers to make their value-added products.

The FOCUS Farming Program fosters beginning farmers to become successful farm entrepreneurs by utilizing a range of services:
  • Access to our land to start their farm enterprises
  • Use of a certified value-added kitchen
  • Mentorship in business training, marketing, and finding roads to capital
Our interest is to serve and support the beginning-farming population as they launch successful careers and also to nurture young school-age students by providing programming of interest and career success modeling.
