Help Us Build a Farm Store & Processing Kitchen for Year-Round Fresh Greens!


UPDATE!!


---Thanks to everyone's incredible support, we've been able to get our driveway in! We’re so grateful for each and every one of you who has contributed, shared, and cheered us on. Our next goal is to raise another $2,000 to cover the costs of soil testing for the septic system and to have county water run to the barn. These are essential steps in making our space fully functional, and every bit of help gets us closer to that goal. Thank you for being a part of this journey with us—we couldn't do it without you!--



We are Chickamauga Creek Farms, a veteran-owned farm specializing in aquaponic and seasonal crops. Our mission is simple: provide our community with high-quality, sustainably grown produce all year long. But after just one season, we quickly realized a major challenge—access. When local farmer’s markets close, our customers struggle to find fresh greens and produce.


That’s why we’re reaching out for your support to convert our barn into an on-farm store and food processing kitchen! This space will serve as a year-round location for customers to pick up fresh greens and produce, while also allowing us to meet Georgia State and agricultural food processing certification requirements. With this certification, we can expand our sales to restaurants, stores, and schools, making local, sustainable food more accessible than ever.


What Your Support Will Help Fund:


A new driveway to provide easy access to the barn


A licensed food processing kitchen to ensure we meet state regulations


A new roof and refinished interior to create a sanitary, sealed space


A walk-in cooler for food storage


A storefront where customers can shop directly from the farm


If we surpass our goal, additional funds will go toward installing a rainwater catch system and solar panels, helping us stay true to our commitment to sustainability.


Our vision is to grow into a multi-greenhouse operation, providing fresh, locally grown greens year-round. By supporting this campaign, you’re not just helping our farm—you’re investing in your community’s access to healthy, sustainable food.


Every donation, big or small, gets us one step closer to making this vision a reality. Please consider donating and sharing our story with your friends and family. Thank you for believing in local farms and fresh food!


Support us today and help build a sustainable future!
