This initial phase will establish the foundation for our sustainable farm-to-table enterprise while creating 12-15 jobs for community members.
For investors, we project 18-22% ROI within 5 years through our $1M equity round. We offer structured buyback options beginning at Year 5 with 2.5x valuation or potential acquisition by the Gullah Geechee Cultural Heritage Foundation which has expressed formal interest. Our business model combines multiple revenue streams including agricultural sales, dining experiences, educational tourism, and cultural workshops.
