Time to move on! Looking for mushroom enthusiasts

Hams from Carterton District

Hi guys

We have put a lot of heart, soul, and money into setting up Urban Fresh Farms.

Its a viable business that has been making great progress every month since we started in late 2019.
It is extremely rewarding growing something from nothing and being able to provide a good food source to our local community, chefs and NZ as a whole.

We started out with the vision of community, better food, thoughts of what the world will look like for our children and wanting them to have a more sustainable future.

Unfortunately we just don't have the financial resources to push through the next few months.
I have been running another IT business and working with Barbs on the mushroom side of things and have been slowly burning out over the past 12 months. Its tough with a small family and working to keep our head above water as well as grow a viable business.

We started with nothing and have created something truly amazing and it would be sad to see it dissolve into nothing.

We are hopeful to find someone willing to take over the business that sees the potential and hard work we have put in. Its just a matter of getting through the next few months and to continue to expand.

If you know someone interested in either investing in a potential partnership or buying our small enterprise please get in touch with us.
