Executive Farmer Network
The peer group for farmers who've outgrown easy answers.
An invite-only network of top operators who meet twice a year to sharpen each other's businesses, candidly, confidentially, on each other's farms.
At your scale, who do you actually talk to?
The bigger your operation gets, the fewer people understand it. You're making seven-figure calls largely alone.
Joining the group gets you:
The best possible advisors
Other farmers your size, running operations like yours, who have experienced the same problem you're staring at.
Comrades in the field
You stop carrying it alone. This is a room of people who get it.

Questions, answered.
Who's in the group?
A hand-picked group of 7 to 10 executive farmers, matched by size and management style, so the feedback comes from people who run an operation like yours.
How often do you meet, and where?
Twice a year, for two-plus days on a member's farm. Each meeting includes a host case study, a behind-the-scenes farm tour, and candid feedback on real numbers.
Is this only for farms?
Yes. The Executive Farmer Network is the one Encore offering that isn't open to ag-adjacent businesses. It's built for top-tier, often multi-generational farm operations.
Will I be grouped with a competitor?
No. Groups are matched by size and management style, and no-compete guidelines keep every conversation confidential and candid.
What does it cost, and what's included?
Membership is an annual investment that covers two attendees. It includes eight hours a year of individualized coaching with Tim, on top of the meetings, written summaries, and year-round peer access. We'll walk you through the numbers on a call.
How do I join?
Membership is invite-only. A brief application keeps the group matched and high-trust. Book a call to start the conversation.
Stop making the big calls alone.
If you're operating at the top of the field and want a room of peers who get it, let's talk. We'll start with a low-pressure conversation.
