Thank you for considering Potlikker’s approach to building a more resilient food system. By coordinating capital, capacity, and relationships over time, we can strengthen agricultural enterprises and the communities they sustain. We welcome the opportunity to partner in this work.
Our Theory of Change
Potlikker coordinates capital, capacity, and relationships around the needs of agricultural enterprises.
This integrated approach helps businesses manage risk, respond to changing conditions, and build resilience over time.

Resilience Framework
The framework shows how Potlikker matches reparative resources to each partner’s circumstances and stage of development.
Capital, relationships, technical assistance, and other resources are applied differently over time to strengthen the capacity to anticipate, absorb, adapt to, and transform in response to change.
