NEPA Local Growers MeetingsWe’re a group of local farmers and growers in Bradford, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Sullivan, Susquehanna, and Wyoming counties in Pennsylvania.
Our goal is to help support a thriving regional food system here in Northeastern PA in order to grow markets, increase grower wages, and improve food access.
Our core premise:
Farmers and growers deserve to earn a thriving wage
Thriving wages are possible in a thriving community food system that is designed to meet the needs of growers and consumers
Fellow growers are our collaborators, not our competitors
Together we can cultivate and advocate for more efficient systems for Growing, Processing, Preparing, Retailing, Distributing, and Waste Management (the pillars of a community food system).
If you’d like to join us, you’ll find all the deets for actionable projects and upcoming meetings below…

Grown Local Buyers Guide
We’re working with the Times Leader to produce a 2026 Grown Local Buyers Guide for Northeastern PA. This guide will be published both digitally and in print.
The goal of this project is to make it easier and more convenient for people and restaurants to discover and buy locally grown food and agricultural products (wine, honey, jam, etc).
The guide’s 2026 publication date will be Sunday, June 14th. Local farm and business submissions are due by 5pm on Thursday, May 21st.
