About Us

The Stalk Market was born out of the desire to make local food accessible and affordable by decreasing the distance in the supply chain from farm to fork.

If you have gone grocery shopping in the last few months, you have likely seen the prices on the shelves steadily ticking up. Inflation, rising energy, transportation, and labor costs are all contributing to the squeeze on farmers and consumers.

Food is expensive. Food is necessary. We have little choice but to consume whatever is available at the store, unless there are other options available to us. Good quality, locally made, and reasonably-priced food has always seemed like a thing of idealist dreams. We believe it is possible.

The Stalk Market is the Operations & Marketing puzzle piece to aggregating the local food network - focusing on Business to Business distribution and Business to Customer delivery.

This model also relies on a mycelial network effect to grow. We partner with locations that are centrally located and this network allows for the quick movement of food between each with the help of a number of local businesses, each helping to support the growth of a local food network.

By becoming a member of our network, members are able to find products from all our local farms, small businesses, artisans, or back-yard growers we can put a greater percentage of each dollar back into our communities AND keep food costs reasonable for the consumer.
