Farmers & Food Producers

 

Join the Network That Feeds Our Communities

UAC partners with New Jersey farmers, urban growers, and local food producers by offering fair, reliable markets and a mission‑aligned buyer. We work with growers of all sizes to understand what they grow and what they need, creating a clear pathway to sell their food with fair payment, steady demand, and the confidence that it reaches the communities that value it most.

How We Support Growers

  • Direct purchasing — no farmers‑market tent, no retail setup, no unpredictable sales days

  • Wide product acceptance — first‑quality produce, seconds, bumper crops, unsold inventory, small or inconsistent quantities, small‑batch items

  • Coordinated transportation — trusted local drivers reduce labor and fuel costs while keeping dollars in New Jersey

  • Bulk receiving and repacking — we can take product in bulk and repackage it to meet partner needs

  • Year‑round purchasing — produce, storage crops, greenhouse items, grains, flours, honey, baked goods, value‑added products

  • Support for small‑batch production — designated access to the Harvest commercial kitchen

  • Dedicated pathway for urban growers — through our partnership with Greater Newark Conservancy
