more than Financial InsightLed by Jed Beach, who brings years of farming and business experience, FarmSmart has helped over 125 small farms and food producers establish and reach their goals since 2014. Jed is a business consultant, an organic farmer, and a father of four. Jed knows what it's like to run a small business and balance that with family life, and he brings his whole perspective to help clients achieve their goals.
We'll stick with you Unlike other business consultants, who tend to help for an intense period over a small period of time, Jed continues to meet with his clients - month over over month, year over year, doing everything from the mundane things like cleaning up your books, to the big things like planning for retirement.

"We love our running our family farm but have always struggled with record keeping and bookkeeping. Jed has helped me feel more comfortable and in control running our farm business. For the past 8 years, I've been barely keeping my head above water. With Jed's help, I feel ready for the deep end of the pool." - Christa Bahner, Bahner Farm

"Jed spent time poring over our records and developing tools for us to use to evaluate financial successes and failures within the business. Jed is part business counselor and part therapist and all positive. His helpful tools are allowing us to track costs and labor and profit so we can make the most educated decisions possible about scale and growth and investment. Jed's doing the important work of helping mid-career farmers pivot their business to meet the changing demands of the marketplace and the personal lives of a farm family.” - Stacy Brenner, Broadturn Farm

"You are certainly working for me, and lifting the weight off my shoulders, and I am very grateful for it. This all may be particularly true due to this time of year, my full time mom status, and the calendar deadlines I set. You are leading my farm business leaps and bounds forward; I am thankful you can lead me so far ahead so quickly to such useful auspicious results. . . Certainly you are worth more than your weight in gold! I'm impressed with the quality of information, and the way you can approach answering important questions by using the tools of financial analysis." - Mary Ellen Chadd, Green Spark Farm
