We decided to invest all of this weekends earnings (and a little bit more) on Crowd Farming.  What is crowd farming, we just found about it too!  So here is Gonzalo explains it: 

I am Gonzalo Úrculo, farmer and co-founder of CrowdFarming. Together with my brother Gabriel, I started cultivating oranges and clementines in 2010 to recover the abandoned farm of our grandparents. To avoid the crisis in the agricultural sector, we set up a simple website that allows us to sell our fruit directly to the end consumer (or CrowdFarmer as we like to call them).

"Buying food is the most powerful every-day act available to anyone to generate a positive social and environmental impact."

Why Cloudnola and Crowd Farming

We get great fresh produce directly from the farmers, at the same time they can plan their crops/production accordingly reducing waste and maximizing their profit.  It's Win/Win

Who did we choose?
