Across Nebraska, small family farms work tirelessly to raise food the right way- humanely, sustainably, and with deep respect for the land. Yet many of these farms struggle to reach the families who want to support them.

Ellsworth Crossing was created to change that.

We built a place where local farmers and local families could finally meet; not through large corporations, but directly, transparently, and with trust.

Today, we work with more than 100 Nebraska farms, bringing responsibly raised meats and farm products from rural pastures into homes across the state and even across the country. In many ways, we serve as a bridge between generations of agricultural tradition and the modern families searching for real food.

Farmers are producing more. Families are seeking healthier options. Communities are realizing how important local food systems truly are. Without expansion, we risk turning away both farmers who need reliable markets and families who want access to what they produce.

This campaign is about protecting something much bigger than a single business.

To continue this mission, we must expand our infrastructure by adding the storage, equipment, and facility improvements necessary to safely handle the growing supply of food coming from our partner farms.

These improvements will allow us to:

Every contribution directly supports the continuation of this work.

Ellsworth Crossing exists because we believe people deserve to know where their food comes from and farmers deserve to be valued for how they raise it.

Please consider donating or sharing this campaign.

Together, we can ensure that Nebraska’s agricultural heritage continues to nourish families for years to come.
