We recognize that not everyone may have the funds to register for the program, and we want to help reduce any barriers that you may face. We have an annual scholarship program that supports students who wish to join our Masterclass. Subscribe to our newsletter to learn more.

We also have resources outlining ways to subsidize the costs of the training. For those in Canada, see here, and for those in the United States, see here. While the information is specific to North America, we are exploring other international options — if you hear of one, please let us know.

In addition, some of our students have received registration support from initiatives dedicated to supporting local agriculture. Others have crowdsourced funds by using a participatory fundraising platform, such as GoFundMe. If you are working on a grant application and require certain documentation for the purchase of the Masterclass, please send us a request.

Registration for the Market Gardener Institute’s Masterclass comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.

As our Masterclass program is a significant financial investment for anyone who wishes to start farming, it is essential that you carefully review the pre-purchase materials to ensure that our program is right for you. We know the value that our program can bring to the life of those who follow the teachings offered and we receive vibrant testimonials day after day about its transformative effect. However, each situation is unique and it is your responsibility to take informed action.

To be eligible for our money-back guarantee, we ask that you tell us exactly how and why the Masterclass did not meet your needs within 14 days of your refund request. If you made a genuine commitment to the course and did not get the value you expected, or if you feel that your learning style did not match our form of instruction, we will gladly issue you a complete refund.

We accept all major credit cards including Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express. For the one-time payment, we also accept PayPal. We are currently unable to accept checks or invoices.

This payment plan consists of three payments, exactly one month apart, on the same credit card through Stripe, our payment processing system. Please note that each payment must be made on the same card and that PayPal does not offer an installment plan option.

There is more information available to people on every imaginable subject, including farming, than ever before. At the same time, it’s getting harder and harder to evaluate which advice to follow, how to apply it, and who to listen to. People sharing their advice about farming online don’t necessarily have hands-on, tried-and-tested expertise and sorting through the noise can take up a lot of your time. As a farmer, your limiting factor is always time, so our program is designed to teach you proven methods in the most efficient and direct way possible, so that you can quickly achieve the results you’re looking for. It’s not about magic tricks, clickbait or secret formulas. It’s about doing the work, applying a complete methodology that works, and constantly striving to be more efficient by working smarter, not harder. Joining the global community of students participating in the Market Gardener Masterclass will inspire you to reach your full potential as a farmer and business owner. As a student of the Market Gardener Masterclass, you get exclusive access to a peer group, alongside our technical experts trained by Jean-Martin Fortier. Not only do you develop technical knowledge, you have the support of a community.

Once you are registered, you have access to a list of discounts offered by our partners to Masterclass students. There are specific terms and conditions for each company. All offers are provided graciously and are subject to change without notice. Check out our list of partners.
