All About AgriClusters

What in the world is an AgriCluster? Ultimately, it is a fancy compound word that refers to interconnected agricultural businesses operating within a small radius.

Or, as the North American Food Systems Network says:

Graphic with various farming equipment around the border and a woman pointing toward text that reads "An agricluster is therefore an ecological & economic complex of separately-owned but inter-dependent enterprises."

In order to support these AgriClusters, the North American Food Systems Network created the AgriCluster Resilience and Expansion (ACRE) program. ACRE, is an incredible resource that provides strategic planning assistance for farmers and small agricultural businesses like LionBerry.

In the featured photo, with all the smiling faces, you can see our AgriCluster. We call ourselves the Kansas East Elderberry Branch or KEEB.
