What it does
In the order you'll live it:
Garden Crawls + Visualizer
See your crawl before you walk it — pick Houston garden stops, watch the route draw itself in the Visualizer, then go stand in them.
Passport stamps
Every garden you visit stamps your Epicurean Passport — the Farm2Chef stamp with the garden's name in the ring and the visit date, kept always.
Lend a Hand
At a real garden, help with real work — water, sow, weed, harvest — check it off in one tap, and keep one sourced gardening skill in your Field Guide each time.
Garden Porch™
The Garden Porch — meet the people who lend a hand at the same farms. That's where crawl-mates become friends. Neighbors post gardens, dinners and dreams; say hi when you're ready.
Chefs & dinners
Book the chefs who cook from the farms you visited — demos, private dinners and Chef Meals, each chef setting their own table and their own price.
Scan + wellness
Teach the app your rules once — then scan any label in the aisle and read it against your household's wellness profile, with a farm alternative when it doesn't fit.
Recall alerts matched to your allergies
Eggs. Ground beef. Lettuce. Orange juice. Recalls like these post almost every week — and most people hear about them late, if at all. The app watches the federal recall feeds from the FDA and USDA, matches every alert against the allergies you save in your profile, and stores it in your account. If a recall touches one of your allergies, you hear it from us first.
Save your allergies
Tell us the Big 9 that matter to your household — it takes ten seconds below, and you can change it anytime.
We watch the feeds
FDA and USDA recall notices are checked against your list around the clock — no news-scanning on your part.
You get matched alerts
Only the recalls that match your allergies reach you — saved in your account, from day one for the Founding 500.
Claim your spot — it's free
Founding spots are capped at the first 500 testers.
You're in — welcome to the Founding 500.
Your spot is saved. Your welcome email is on its way with your queue position — watch the inbox you just used.

Your personal referral link:
Share it with anyone who'd want recall alerts matched to their allergies — every signup through your link is credited to you.
You're already on the list.
We already have a Founding 500 spot saved for that email — no need to claim twice. Your welcome email carries your queue position and your personal referral link. If it hasn't reached you, check your spam folder, or write us at [email protected] and we'll sort it out.
Founding 500 perks — free for the first 500
First access
The app is live today — on Google Play for Android, and as an installable web app on iPhone, right from this page. Founding members are the first wave for every new release, on every platform.
Founding badge
A founding marker on your profile that stays — you were here in the first 500, from the very first release.
A direct line
Your feedback shapes the app while it's still small enough to change — replies reach the team building it.
Recall alerts from day one
Allergy-matched recall alerts switch on for founders first — the feature this cohort gets before anyone else.
Optional upgrade: Founding Member — $49, one time
Joining Farm2Chef is free — your Founding 500 spot costs nothing, and that never changes. Founding Member is a separate, optional upgrade on top of the free spot: one payment of $49, once. Not a subscription, nothing renews, and you never need it to use the app, claim your spot, or book a dinner or a class. Enrollment closes January 31, 2027 — or the moment the 500 founding spots fill, whichever comes first. It buys exactly three things:
Founding pricing, kept
Chef Meals weekly plans and Six Rows coffee subscriptions carry founding pricing for you — 10% off Chef Meals every week ($121.50 a week solo instead of $135; $202.50 for a couple instead of $225) and coffee from $25.99 a month — for as long as you're a Founding Member.
You book before the public
Our rooms are small on purpose — Intimate Friendz dinners seat 12 and classes cap at 16 — and they sell out. Founding Members get the booking link by email before tickets open to the public, while seats are still there.
Your number, kept
A numbered Founding Member card inside your account — Member #7, #23, #101 — issued once, in the order people join, and never reissued. Proof you were here first.
That's the whole bundle. No unlimited anything, no guaranteed anything — the lock, the window, and your number.
Do I need this to join the Founding 500?
No. The Founding 500 is free — claim your spot below, no card
required.
Is the $49 a subscription?
No. One payment, one time. It never renews, and there's nothing
to cancel.
Can I decide later?
Yes — any time until January 31, 2027, or until
the 500 founding spots fill, whichever comes first. After that,
Founding Member closes for good, and prices move to the regular
rates we set as we grow. Claim your free spot now either way.

Love notes for the app
Three things you love about Farm2Chef
Thinking of working with us? Start here — tell us three things you love about the app. It posts to the wall the moment you send it, and it genuinely steers what we build next.
The wall is waking up…
One Kitchen. One Ecosystem.
The app is one door into a bigger house: meet the farms in the Farm2Chef directory, buy protein straight from ranchers through the Community Protein Pool, eat with Chef Meals, and cook alongside us in Travel Villa Kitchen classes and dinners.
