Our Farms

Meet the farmers that help provide us with the best ingredients around

Our Farms

At Fortify, we believe that supporting local farms and sustainable farming practices in the region will help ensure a healthy food source for the future. Supporting local farmers helps them continue giving back to the land that many factory farms destroy and it helps boost the local economy.

Our farms are important to us. See an example in this video from Brasstown Beef.
