All About MAE
MAE sprouted from a profound sense of urgency during the summer of 2020, when Americans across the nation were experiencing the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Witnessing the closure of restaurants, farmers markets, and our beloved small businesses sparked an idea. As we watched our friends, family, and neighbors become impacted we began to embark on our journey of empowerment and support.
Today, we are excited to officially launch Grow With MAE, LLC ("MAE"); a beacon of support for America's agricultural entrepreneurs and artisans. Rooted in the belief that these individuals are the backbone of our nation, we've crafted an online sanctuary—a thriving community where entrepreneurial spirits can flourish.
Our mission is unwavering: to foster an ecosystem that enables agricultural entrepreneurs and artisans to thrive and grow. We will continue to nurture our digital marketplace and hold steadfast to our vision of a world where supporting local isn’t limited by location.
