FarmStand

For iPhone

The stand at the end of someone’s driveway, on a map.

Fresh food is often closer than you think — a table of tomatoes, a cooler of eggs, a hand-painted sign you only notice once you have already driven past. FarmStand puts those stands where you can find them.

Coming soon to the App Store

What it is

A noticeboard for roadside produce. Growers post what they have out today; people nearby see it on a map, sorted by how far they would actually drive. Everything happens in person, at the stand.

It is built for the scale most of this happens at — half an acre of tomatoes, a few dozen eggs a week, a glut of courgettes nobody in the house wants to look at again.

Two sides of the same road

If you are buying

  • See what is for sale close by, sorted by distance
  • Browse by what you want — vegetables, fruit, eggs, honey, herbs, preserves, flowers
  • Open the map to find stands around you, with opening hours and how they take payment
  • Message a farmer before setting off, so you know it is still there
  • Follow a farm, or one product you keep coming back for
  • See what has sold out for the day before making the trip

If you are selling

  • Post a listing in about a minute: a photo, a price, how much you have
  • Your farm address fills in the location, changeable per listing
  • Set your stand hours and how you take payment — cash, honesty box, or your own payment handle
  • Mark something sold out for today; it clears itself overnight
  • Save a listing as a draft and publish it when you are ready
  • Answer questions without handing out your phone number

No fees, no middleman

FarmStand does not process payments and takes no cut of anything you sell. Buyers pay sellers directly, in person or through the seller’s own payment handle.

There is no stall fee, no commission, and no waiting for a market day. It is a noticeboard, not a marketplace standing between you.
