Overview
Farmland investing has been tried-and-true for over 60 years, with the asset class regularly posting annual returns above 5% and proving to be a safe haven during times of macroeconomic disruption or inflation. Its strong profile of growth and stable prices have made farmland investing a strong alternative to stocks, bonds, and traditional real estate assets.
FarmTogether is an investment manager that offers institutional-quality U.S. farmland to accredited investors. Their offerings, such as crowdfunded farmland opportunities, farmland funds, and bespoke deals, radically democratize farmland investing.
FarmTogether’s all-in-one platform also makes it easy to start investing in farmland without needing to conduct on-site due diligence. FarmTogether will handle all the research, including finding the land, as well as operations and profit distribution. Their minimum investment of $15,000 makes FarmTogether one of the most accessible ways for an accredited investor to gain exposure to this historically stable and uncorrelated asset class.

How it Works
Here’s how FarmTogether helps investors diversify into U.S. farmland:
Here’s how FarmTogether helps investors diversify into U.S. farmland:
1
FarmTogether sources high-quality farmland offerings
The team at FarmTogether leverages technology and data science to source high-quality farmland across the U.S. It also conducts all of the due diligence, operations and profit distributions.
2
The company creates farmland offerings
Roughly 2% of all opportunities screened become investment offerings on FarmTogether. These opportunities are offered to accredited investors as part of FarmTogether’s crowdfunded product, Sustainable Farmland Fund, or bespoke deals.
3
Investors choose their offerings
Accredited investors can buy into individual properties—from apple orchards to almond farms—for a minimum investment of $15,000. Alternatively, they can buy a large number of properties through the FarmTogether Sustainable Farmland Fund from $100K, or arrange a bespoke deal from $1M.
4
Investors receive dividends until the property is sold
FarmTogether doles out dividends from properties which are producing income, either from cash rents or proceeds from crop sales. When the property sells, FarmTogether investors will receive cash from the long-term appreciation of their farmland investment portfolio.

How You
Make Money
On FarmTogether, you’ll be paid passive income from your property in the form of dividends. This dividend depends from offering-to-offering, which means it’s important to read through each property’s financials on FarmTogether before investing.
When your farmland offering ultimately sells, you’ll also receive cash proceeds from the capital appreciation of your property.

How FarmTogether
Makes Money
FarmTogether’s fees vary based on each deal and investment offering, meaning that your fees will depend on what you choose to invest in.
Generally, investors can expect to pay an origination fee (to enter into the investment) and an annual management fee. These figures should come out to between 1.5%-2% annual fees.

How You’re Taxed
FarmTogether’s investments are largely subject to income tax. However, investors are not expected to trigger a taxable event until one of their properties generates income.
The exact tax rate of this investment depends on the type of income generated as well as the taxpayer's country of residence, personal income tax bracket and whether the investment is held in a tax-advantaged account. At the end of each tax year, FarmTogether sends investors a 1099-MISC to file their tax returns.
In the event that FarmTogether sells one of its properties, the returns would also be subject to capital gains tax.
Federal, state and local taxes also affect the total tax burden associated with the investment. For more clarity, consult with an advisor before making an investment.

Deals are taxed as either ordinary business income or net real estate rental income.

FAQs
FarmTogether is a platform for accredited investors to invest in U.S. farmland, either through crowdfunded offerings, a diversified fund of properties, or bespoke opportunities for individuals. FarmTogether allows individuals to benefit from both the cash and capital appreciation of this historically stable asset class.
FarmTogether’s studied team of financial services and capital markets professionals have deployed more than $1.2B in capital in the agriculture industry. The company has done more than 35 offerings and manages over $160 million worth of user deposits.
Users can register on FarmTogether’s website, verify their identity and status as an accredited investor, and then choose from individual farmland offerings, a diversified fund of offerings, or bespoke opportunities for sole ownership. Investors can then hold their farmland, receiving dividends from their property’s income. When the property sells, investors receive cash arising from the capital appreciation.
FarmTogether might be a good investment for investors interested in gaining exposure to farmland, but it’s not ideal for investors who desire near-term liquidity and quick exits. Though you will receive dividends, and eventually receive cash for returns, you might not be able to exit your FarmTogether investment for many years. Consider these variables before investing.
FarmTogether is a privately-owned company which has raised over $25 million from venture capitalists and individual investors in a crowdfund. The funding for FarmTogether is separate from funding it raises for farmland investments and properties.
FarmTogether is not a REIT, it is a platform which allows investors to purchase interests in individual farmland offerings—whether through a crowdfund or high-value bespoke offerings.
FarmTogether does offer a diversified fund offering for accredited U.S-based investors willing to invest at least $100,000, but the company does not custody or administrate the fund, nor does it describe this product as a REIT.
