Local Pastures bridges the gap between Austinites and farms, allowing to buy directly out of their trailer.
As Austin's urban sprawl widens the physical divide between Austinites and the farms and ranches that feed us, there's also only so much room within city limits to host farmers' markets, and mostly on the weekends. Local Pastures bridges that growing gap and allows Austinites to buy directly from farmers seven days a week out of their trailer.
Recognizing that most people"don't want to drive an hour, hour and a half to my farm," Moffett saw an opportunity to bring his farm to Austin. Partnering with Belle Vie Farm, they initially looked at setting up a farm stand in town, then settled on operating out of a trailer. After hiring a guy to build it, they soon realized they were getting scammed by the builder.
