Help Erba Verde Farms Get Back on the Road!

A few weeks ago, our delivery van was involved in a serious accident while bringing milk and meat to our customers across Western New York. Morgan, one of our Erba Verde employees, was behind the wheel and thankfully walked away with only minor injuries. We are so grateful for that. Vans and product can be replaced. People can't.

Still, the accident hit our small farm hard. We lost the entire delivery of milk and meat, and the van itself was totaled. Morgan will be out of work for about a month while she recovers, and because workers' compensation doesn't cover her full wages, she's facing a real financial gap through no fault of her own.

Where your support would go:

Our goal is to raise $8,000. A portion of the funds will go directly to Morgan, to help cover the wages workers' comp won't while she heals. She has given so much to this farm and this is our chance to give a little back to her.

The rest will help us replace our delivery van sooner than insurance alone will allow. That van was only recently purchased and has been the bridge connecting our farm and to our community. The faster we can get back on the road, the faster we can get back to doing what we love: bringing fresh, quality milk and meat to the families and communities of WNY.

We want to be honest. Asking for help doesn't come naturally to us. We're used to being the ones who provide for those around us. Farming has always been a community effort, and we've been humbled time and again by the kindness of the people we serve. If you're able to contribute, every dollar truly helps. And if you're not, we completely understand. We kindly ask instead that you share this page, send a kind word, or simply continue to support local farms. It would mean just as much to us.

Thank you for being part of the Erba Verde Farms community. We can't wait to see you at the farmers’ markets, in our farm store, or simply out in East Aurora, where we’re located.

With gratitude,

Bryan & Mary
