The Brief

MoneyMade Verdict

FarmTogether is the strongest all-in-one farmland platform for accredited investors who want institutional-quality deal selection, verified sustainability standards, and a range of entry points — but the $15,000 crowdfunding minimum and multi-year lock-ups mean it's built for patient capital, not flexible portfolios.

FarmTogether is a farmland investment platform founded in 2017 that connects accredited investors with individual U.S. farmland deals and diversified farmland funds. The company was acquired by Quail Rock Partners in 2024, bringing new ownership and strategic direction while preserving the operational team that built the platform. FarmTogether focuses exclusively on U.S. farmland — primarily permanent crop acreage (almonds, pistachios, walnuts, citrus, apples) and row crop farmland (corn, soybeans, cotton) across California, Washington, Oregon, Texas, and the Midwest. The platform has facilitated investments across ~70 properties totaling over $250 million in invested capital.

FarmTogether offers three distinct access paths: individual crowdfunded deals (typically $15,000–$50,000 minimum per property, structured as LLC interests), the Sustainable Farmland Fund (a diversified portfolio of farmland assets with a $100,000 minimum and 10-year target hold period), and the higher-minimum Farmland Direct (sole ownership of entire farms starting at ~$1 million). Target returns vary by deal type: row crop land typically targets 6%–10% net IRR driven by lease income and modest land appreciation, while permanent crop deals aim for 8%–12% IRR with higher operational risk from crop price volatility and weather events. The platform also emphasizes sustainability practices and has been certified by Leading Harvest, a third-party sustainability standard covering water efficiency, soil health, and labor practices — giving ESG-conscious investors an additional filter when selecting deals.

Reality checkThis projection assumes the target return range is achieved every single year, net of fees. Real-world returns vary significantly — FarmTogether's actual history includes years of negative returns. Target ranges describe what the platform aims to achieve, not guaranteed outcomes. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
