Support an Experiment
Some of the questions we want to answer require animals, equipment, materials, outside services and months of observation. Rather than waiting until the work is finished to sell what we learned, we are inviting people to help make selected experiments possible.
Supporters can follow the work as it happens and receive benefits based on their contribution level. Depending on the experiment, those benefits may include detailed updates, complete field notes, recognition as a supporter, or a copy of the finished Playbook or business guide.
Contributions first support the experiment identified. If an experiment is completed under budget, receives more support than required, or must change direction, remaining funds will be placed in the Lapeyrouse Lands Farm Experiment Fund and used for future documented experiments.
Join the Crew
Your monthly contribution supports the experiment you select. If you choose, your support can automatically continue with the next active experiment when this one concludes. You may cancel at any time.
