Our vision is for a prosperous Hudson Valley community consciously investing in resilient agriculture and viable local food systems.
Our mission is to provide innovative solutions that create dynamic agricultural entrepreneurship, support sustainability and climate resiliency and enhance economic growth in the Hudson Valley. Through improving equitable capital access and business technical assistance for agricultural and food entrepreneurs, HVADC is committed to presenting programming and lending programs that are inclusive of low-to-moderate income and underserved communities.

About the Program
The Farm and Food Business Accelerator supports the creation and growth of robust regional supply chains by providing entrepreneurs with the tools they need to be successful. This program is designed to help farmers and food entrepreneurs develop the necessary skills and materials to scale their business, build sales, and access financing sources.
Through a six-month customized curriculum, participants will engage in a series of online training activities, expert instruction, one-on-one mentoring sessions, group interaction and industry networking events to learn how to talk to investors, discover new market opportunities, and pitch to potential funders. Participants will have the opportunity to connect with the growing network of New York City and Hudson Valley-based funders that are seeking to invest in ventures that support the local food system.
