Whether you're thinking of launching a new food business, growing an existing one or simply cleaning up your books, Acorn Accounting can help.

Local sustainable farms
​

In order to serve most markets, sustainable local farmers are required to hold specific certifications and comply with sanitation regulations that can be arduous and expensive to obtain and maintain. Acorn Accounting is dedicated to helping growers acquire and maintain certifications needed to access markets such as restaurants, supermarkets, hotels, hospitals, and schools.

​

We assess you on standards and help you meet them. We support you every step of the way, providing hands-on assistance with grants and certifications, market opportunities, consulting, and access to financial and technical resources.

​

Schools and daycare centers
​

A major barrier to the Farm to School program is the prohibitive cost of organic local foods. We assist schools and daycare centers in applying to the USDA Farm-to-School grant and other funding aimed at serving healthy food to children.

​

We help schools and preschool centers apply and claim the State's CACFP reimbursement.
