Farms Close By operates a farming model that places franchised micro-farms directly in local neighborhoods to supply year-round, organically grown produce. The approach seeks to improve access to wholesome food, particularly in areas of need, and includes plans to help first-time farmers, women, minorities, and veterans purchase franchise units. It relies on established growing systems from Nelson & Pade and a Spanish-developed New Growing System to enable high-density, local production.

The company is based in Mckeesport, Pennsylvania, and is a small farming operation. Its strategy focuses on local, neighborhood-based production to strengthen access to organic foods and create employment in the communities it serves.
