Rooted in the Ozarks. Growing Opportunity.
Building the conditions for economic mobility in Missouri's Ozarks by championing local food producers.
Most rural food producers have the skill, the grit, and the dream. What they don't have is a clear path from one side to the other: from producing food to building a sustainable livelihood from it. Many lack the conditions that allow their business ideas to grow.
There’s a saying: “a cucumber feeds a family, a pickle feeds a business.”
The gap between the two are the barriers that keep local producers from reaching larger markets. GOTURSIX exists to help remove those barriers.
We bridge the gap between the cucumber and the pickle.
WHO WE ARE / WHAT WE DO
GOTURSIX Hellbender Third Space
In the 1980s, American sociologist Ray Oldenburg developed the notion of a "third place": a space for informal, free social interaction, essential to democracy.
This is the concept philosophy behind our vision :
Thriving communities emerge when people have opportunities to connect, contribute, learn, and build together.
Not home. Not work. A place where the conditions for thriving take root. Visit the 20-acre Hellbender Third Space to engage and grow in community.

Blessing Boxes by Ron
Take what you need. Leave what you can.
A Blessing Box is a small pantry stocked by neighbors for neighbors. Anyone can take what they need, and anyone can leave something for the next person.
Hand-built by Ron Dorsey, Navy Veteran and GOTURSIX co-founder, the first Blessing Box launches July 4, 2026. Our goal is to create a connected network of food access points across Missouri's South Central Ozarks and inspire others to build their own.
Together, we're building a stronger Ozarks, one blessing at a time.

Wright County Farm Stop
Wright County Farm Stop is built to help local food producers move beyond “cottage law” and build sustainable retail businesses.
Located in Hartville, Missouri, and with partial funding from Vital Farms, the Wright County Farm Stop opens with cold and shelf stable foods in September 2026.
The fully-funded project will combine a farmer's market, mercantile, county-inspected commercial kitchen, and producer support: bridging the gap between the “cucumber and the pickle.”
