First-gen farmer building direct farm-to-consumer marketplace with 450 farms

The Idea
An Amazon-style marketplace connecting consumers directly with local small farms. The US loses 100k farms a year because small farms can't survive financially. Red Hen gives them a direct sales channel and a way to stay viable.

Who It's For
Small farmers who struggle to compete financially and consumers who want to buy local and support independent farms.

What's Built
Live iOS and Android app built on Flutter, professionally developed. 10 months in. Looking for in-house technical ownership to take it further: API integrations, improved product search, and ongoing improvements.

Early Traction
450+ farms and 7,600 users in 10 months, growing organically.

Their Background
First-gen farmer with an MS in Data Analytics. Has run multiple businesses for 10+ years. CEO of Red Hen App since 2024.

What They Need
A technical co-founder to own the Flutter codebase and drive product improvements.
