Services

I provide individual coaching services to farms and small food entrepreneurs. You can reach out through the contact page or by emailing stevie [at] steviegrows [dot] com. Many services may be covered by grant or organizational funding. I recommend checking with my partner organizations or other sources. If funding isn’t available, I’ll provide a project estimate before we begin.

Individual Coaching

Build a Record- Keeping System

Financial Coaching & Analysis

Gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence to make informed financial decisions. I offer guidance on creating financial summaries, tracking assets and liabilities, budgeting, cost of production analysis, and financial forecasting to help you stay on top of your business finances.

Business Plan Development & Grant Review

I provide coaching through the structure of business plans and grants, helping articulate goals, metrics, and SWOT analysis to set you up for success. I also review drafts and provide feedback, ensuring your plan or grant application is clear, compelling, and well-organized.

Summer Bookkeeping Services

(May–September) If you’d rather hand off bookkeeping tasks, I offer seasonal bookkeeping services. This can include data entry, chart of accounts clean-up, error correction, and template building to get your records in order.

How we can work together & what do you charge?

We can work together in a few different ways:

Directly, through a fee-for-service agreement (hourly or project based), barter/trade, or sliding scale.
Through a third-party organization that funds consulting work. If you already have a relationship with a group like this, you're welcome to request to work with me. I'm always open to partnering with new organizations. Feel free to ask for an introduction or reach out to them directly. Click here to see a list of organizations I already work with.

Regardless of the payment method, we'll start with a free 30-50 minute consultation to clarify where you're stuck and what you'd like support with. From there, I'll propose a scope of work usually between 10-50 hours in nature. If you're within a two-hour drive, I prefer to do our first meeting in person so i can better understand your setup.

Rates:

My rates vary depending on a few things - like the scope of work, travel time, whether we're working directly or through a funded organization, and your financial situation. For coaching, I often estimate the time commitment and build that into a full project budget. For bookkeeping, I estimate an hourly commitment. Before we begin, i'll always provide a quote estimate so you know what to expect.

To give you a general idea:

Bookkeeping starts at $35/hr for straightforward data entry and minimal prep. If we need to do a lot of catch-up or rebuilding, the rates will go up from there.
Coaching and consulting starts at $75/hr for one-on-one support, tool development, or deeper strategy work. For shorter consults, the rate can go up to $100/hr, and for longer projects over 50 hours or folks with limited budgets, I reduce the rate.

My rates include meetings, direct consultation, custom tool design, and any email follow-up where I'm reviewing or offering advice. I don't track general admin time and my rates reflect the full picture of the work, including the time I put into running this business and developing resources.
