In 2024, we supported 9 farmers across the country as part of our pilot initiative. Collaborating with a team of 10 expert creatives from diverse fields, we delivered tailored solutions ranging from branding and website design to business mentorship.

The support we received from The Nest has been invaluable to our business.

The team matched us with two brilliant local creatives who worked with us to refresh our branding and marketing, making the farm and food stall more resilient. The process was seamless and everyone we worked with was so friendly, professional, helpful, and really took the time to understand who we were and what we wanted to achieve.

This work never would have been possible without the support provided by The Nest, and we are so grateful to have had the opportunity to be part of their pilot funding.
