The growers to reach, before the season starts.
Oxpium builds the list of vegetable farms, greenhouse growers and nurseries in your territory, finds the owner, tells you when one of them is growing or hiring, and runs the campaign.

From the CSA farm down the road to the wholesale nursery that ships by the truckload.
A two-acre organic farm running a CSA and a 40-acre wholesale nursery selling to landscapers don't buy the same things. Tell the agent what they grow, where, and how they sell: it searches business listings, public sources, professional databases, job postings and grower websites, and removes the duplicates.

238 vegetable farms, 141 of them selling direct.
What they grow
Field vegetables, greenhouse crops, bedding plants, cut flowers, shrubs and trees: the agent reads each website and sorts the growers for you.
How they sell
CSA, farm stand, farmers markets, wholesale, garden centers: the agent notes how each grower sells, so you reach the ones your offer fits.
Ratings and hours
For farm stands and u-picks, the rating, the review count and the hours on their listing tell you how busy the stand is and when it's open.
A profile
Certified organic shown on the website, crews wanted, CSA sold out: criteria you combine in the same sentence, without a filter to set up.
The grower, what they grow, and how they sell it.
On a vegetable farm, the person who decides is harvesting in the morning, at market on Saturday and packing CSA boxes in the evening. There's no office, but growers often publish a lot: their crops, their acres, their pickup days. The agent fills in the columns your campaign needs, row by row: the owner, the covered growing space, the organic claim, the CSA and online ordering. Every email is verified before it's added.

The owner
Their name, with their email and cell when there is one; at a larger nursery, the agent also looks for the general manager or the head grower.
Acres and tunnels
The acres in production and the covered space, high tunnels or greenhouses, when the grower shows them on the website or in a local story.
Crops and organic
What they grow, and whether certified organic is shown on the website: the agent notes it, and the cell says “Not found” when nothing is listed.
Online sales
CSA shares, online ordering, pickup days: you see who already sells online and who still takes every order by phone or text.
Automations that follow the seasons, and tell you which grower to call.
Once the list is built, Oxpium keeps going without you. Each automation reruns on schedule and moves what just changed to the top of the list: a new farm opening, a crew wanted, a CSA sold out, new tunnels going up. Those are your signals, and they come in on their own.

New growers
Every Monday, an automation adds the vegetable farms, greenhouses and nurseries that just opened a business listing in your territory.
Crews wanted
Every morning, another flags the growers on your list that post a field crew, harvest or greenhouse opening, with a “Hiring” badge.
Sold out
Every month, the farms whose website says the CSA is full or has a waitlist move to the top: demand is ahead of what they can grow.
Your own watch
Any watch you can put in one sentence, like new high tunnels every Friday: the agent reruns it on schedule and tells you what changed.
A campaign that spends the winter with growers.
From April to October, a vegetable grower harvests in the morning, packs boxes and markets in the afternoon, and reads email late at night. Winter is when they plan crops, order seed and decide what to buy. The campaign writes and calls in the early afternoon, never on Saturday market day, from your own mailbox and your browser, and stops as soon as someone replies.
Subject covered at grower
Each variable is a column of your list, filled in by the agent.
In winter, at the right time
From November to February, crop plans get made and seed gets ordered: that's when your campaign has the best chance of being read at all.
Early afternoon
Calls go out from 1 to 2:30 pm, Monday to Thursday, after the morning harvest and before the boxes and the market prep get going.
Calls from the browser
You call from your browser, and each call is recorded, transcribed and summarized in the list, right next to the grower you talked to.
A follow-up that read up
An agent step rereads the website, the pickup days and the latest reviews to write the follow-up, and it all stops when the grower replies.
Frequently asked questions
Write “vegetable farms in the Hudson Valley, with how they sell”. The agent searches business listings, public sources and grower websites, reads what each one says to keep the vegetable farms and note their sales channel, and removes the duplicates. You get the town, the crops, how they sell and the phone of each farm in a few minutes.
Ask the agent to read each farm's website: it notes whether certified organic is shown there, along with the main crops and the covered growing space when they're published. It doesn't check the certification itself: the column says what the farm shows.
Tell the agent once: “every month, flag the farms whose website says the CSA is full or has a waitlist”. The automation runs on its own, and the farms where demand is ahead of supply land at the top of your list with the sentence read on their website.
An email in the early afternoon, a call two days later, an agent step that rereads the website and the latest reviews, then a follow-up in the same thread. Nothing goes out on Saturday, market day. Emails leave from your own mailbox, calls from your browser are recorded, transcribed and summarized, and the sequence stops as soon as the grower replies.
For 250 farms with their website or listing read, about 180 verified emails and 100 cell phones, count around €40 of data on top of the subscription. An agency typically charges €1,000 or more for a list that size, delivered once and never updated.See pricing
They have two rushes: spring, from March to May, when bedding plants and shrubs ship, and fall, with mums and pumpkins. Write to them in June and July or from mid-November to February. Vegetable growers are easiest to reach in winter, once the last market is done.
