Risk Factors
Investment in the securities offered hereby involves certain risks and is suitable only for investors of substantial financial means. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information contained in this prospectus, before making an investment decision concerning the common stock.
INVESTORS MAY LOSE THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT IF GMFAHL FAILS TO FULLY IMPLEMENT ITS BUSINESS PLAN.
Green Meadows Farms And Holdings Limited was formed on July 16, 2006. “GMFAHL” has no significant demonstrable operations record upon which you can evaluate the business and its prospects. To date, we have not generated any revenues and may incur losses in the foreseeable future. “GMFAHL” prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development. These risks include, without limitation, competition, the absence of ongoing revenue streams, inexperienced management and lack of brand recognition. “GMFAHL” cannot guarantee that it will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. If we fail to implement and establish a financial base of operations, we may be forced to cease operations, in which case investors may lose their entire investment.
FUTURE ADDITIONAL ISSUANCES OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY CAUSE INVESTORS TO BEAR A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF LOSS DUE TO IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION
We are authorized to issue up to 40,000,000 shares of common stock. Presently, there are 24,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. In the event we require additional capital, we may need to issue shares of our common stock in exchange for cash to continue as a going concern. There are no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. We can not assure you that any financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. Any such future additional issuances of our stock will increase outstanding shares and dilute stockholders’ interests.
OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTOR HAVE LIMITED BUSINESS EXPERIENCE AND NO EXPERTISE MANAGING A PUBLIC COMPANY. AS A RESULT, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO DEVELOP OUR BUSINESS AND MANAGE OUR PUBLIC REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.
Our operations depend on the efforts of GMFAHL’s officers and directors. No GMFAHL officer or director has experience related to public company management or as a principal accounting or principal financial officer. Additionally, GMFAHL’s officers and directors have limited experience related to marketing. Because of these factors, GMFAHL may be unable to develop and implement its business plan and manage its public reporting requirements. GMFAHL cannot guarantee it that will overcome any such obstacles.
INVESTORS HAVE LIMITED CONTROL OVER DECISION-MAKING BECAUSE Allison J Macphee, AN OFFICER, SOLE DIRECTOR AND SHAREHOLDER, CONTROLS THE MAJORITY OF OUR ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK.
Allison J Macphee, who is our President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director, beneficially owns approximately 62.5% of our authorized common stock. As a result, this one stockholder could exercise control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Such concentrated control may also make it difficult for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our common stock in the event we enter into transactions which require stockholder approval. In addition, certain provisions of Louisiana law could have the effect of making it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of us. For example, Louisiana law provides that not less than two-thirds vote of the stockholders is required to remove a director, which could make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of our Board of Directors. This concentration of ownership further limits the power to exercise control by the minority shareholders.
WE MAY BE UNABLE TO GENERATE SALES WITHOUT SALES OR MARKETING.
We have not significantly commenced our planned operations and have limited sales and marketing capabilities. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to develop a significant sales and marketing plan or implement our strategic business plan. In the event we are unable to successfully execute these objectives, we may be unable to generate sufficient sales and operate as a going concern.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FUNDING, WE MAY BE FORCED TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS.
We have limited capital resources. To date, we have not generated any cash flow from our operations. Unless we begin to generate sufficient revenues from the implementation of our proposed business plan to finance operations as a going concern, we may experience liquidity and solvency problems. Such liquidity and solvency concerns may force us to go out of business if additional financing is not available. We have no intention of liquidating. In the event our cash resources are insufficient to continue operations, we intend to raise additional capital through offerings and sales of equity or debt securities. In the event we are unable to raise sufficient funds, we will be forced to go out of business and will be forced to liquidate. A possibility of such outcome presents a risk of complete loss of investment in our common stock.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN, INVESTORS MAY FACE A COMPLETE LOSS OF THEIR INVESTMENT.
We have yet to significantly commence our planned operations. As of the date of this Prospectus, GMFAHL has had only limited start-up operations and has generated no revenues to date. Taking these facts into account, our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in the independent auditors’ report to the financial statements included in the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part. If GMFAHL’s business fails, the investors in this offering may face a complete loss of their investment.
OUR INTERNAL CONTROLS MAY BE INADEQUATE, WHICH COULD CAUSE OUR FINANCIAL REPORTING TO BE UNRELIABLE AND LEAD TO MISINFORMATION BEING DISSEMINATED TO THE PUBLIC.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
We principally have one individual performing the functions of all officers and directors. This individual developed our internal control procedures and is responsible for monitoring and ensuring compliance with those procedures. As a result, our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.
FAILURE BY US TO RESPOND TO CHANGES IN CONSUMER PREFERENCES COULD RESULT IN LACK OF SALES REVENUES AND MAY FORCE US OUT OF BUSINESS.
Any change in the preferences of our potential customers that we fail to anticipate could reduce the demand for our services. Decisions about our focus and the specific services we plan to offer will often be made in advance of entering the marketplace. Failure to anticipate and respond to changes in consumer preferences and demands could lead to, among other things, customer dissatisfaction, failure to attract demand for our proposed services and lower profit margins.
CERTAIN LOUISIANA CORPORATION LAW PROVISIONS COULD PREVENT A POTENTIAL TAKEOVER, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
We are incorporated in the State of Louisiana. Certain provisions of Louisiana corporation law could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Because Louisiana corporation law requires board approval of a transaction involving a change in our control, it would be more difficult for someone to acquire control of us. Louisiana corporate law also discourages proxy contests making it more difficult for you and other shareholders to elect directors other than the candidate or candidates nominated by our board of directors.
THE COSTS AND EXPENSES OF SEC REPORTING AND COMPLIANCE MAY INHIBIT OUR OPERATIONS.
After the effectiveness of this registration statement, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The costs of complying with such requirements may be substantial. In the event we are unable to establish a base of operations that generates sufficient cash flows or cannot obtain additional equity or debt financing, the costs of maintaining our status as a reporting entity may inhibit out ability to continue our operations.
YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL YOUR SHARES IN OUR COMPANY BECAUSE THERE IS NO PUBLIC MARKET FOR OUR STOCK.
To date, we have made effort to obtain listing or quotation of our securities on a national stock exchange or association. We have identified and approached a broker/dealers with regard to assisting us apply for such listing. We are unable to estimate when we expect to undertake this endeavor. . We cannot guarantee that a meaningful trading market will develop. If a market ever develops for our Common Stock, of which we cannot guarantee success, the trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various events or factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations, which, without a direct relationship to the operating performance, may affect the market price of our stock.
INVESTORS MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY LIQUIDATING THEIR INVESTMENT BECAUSE REAC STOCK IS SUBJECT TO PENNY STOCK REGULATION.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker/dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange system). The penny stock rules require a broker/dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker/dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker/dealer, and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules; the broker/dealer must make a special written determination that a penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in any secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules, and accordingly, customers in Company securities may find it difficult to sell their securities, if at all. In addition, the “penny stock” rules adopted by the SEC under the Exchange Act subject the sale of the shares of the common stock to certain regulations which impose sales practice requirements on broker-dealers. For example, broker-dealers selling such securities must, prior to effecting the transaction, provide their customers with a document that discloses the risks of investing in such securities. Included in this document are the following:
| · | The bid and offer price quotes for the penny stock, and the number of shares to which the quoted prices apply, |
| · | The brokerage firm’s compensation for the trade, and |
| · | The compensation received by the brokerages firm’s salesperson for the trade. |
In addition, the brokerage firm must send to the investor:
| · | Monthly account statement that gives an estimate of the value of each penny stock in the investor’s account, and |
| · | A written statement of the investor’s financial situation and investment goals. |
Legal remedies, which may be available to an investor, are as follows:
| · | If penny stocks are sold in violation of the investor’s rights listed above, or other federal or state securities laws, the investor may be able to cancel his purchase and get back his money, and |
| · | If the stocks are sold in a fraudulent manner, the investor may be able to sue the persons and firms that caused the fraud for damages. |
| · | If the investor has signed an arbitration agreement with the brokerage firm, then the investor may need to pursue a claim through arbitration. |
If the person purchasing the securities is someone other than an accredited investor or an established customer of the broker-dealer, the broker-dealer must also approve the potential customer’s account by obtaining information concerning the customer’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. The broker-dealer must also make a determination whether the transaction is suitable for the customer and whether the customer has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be reasonably expected to be capable of evaluating the risk of transactions in such securities.
These disclosure and other requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules may discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF OUR ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING COMMON SHARES ARE RESTRICTED UNDER RULE 144 OF THE SECURITIES ACT, AS AMENDED. WHEN THE RESTRICTION ON THESE SHARES IS LIFTED, AND IF THE SHARES ARE SOLD IN THE OPEN MARKET, THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
A large number (24,000,000) of the presently authorized common stock (40,000,000), are “restricted securities” as defined under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and may only be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, if available. Rule 144, as amended, is an exemption that generally provides that a person who has satisfied a one year holding period for such restricted securities may sell, within any three month period (provided we are current in our reporting obligations under the Exchange Act) subject to certain manner of resale provisions, an amount of restricted securities which does not exceed the greater of 1% of a company’s outstanding common stock or the average weekly trading volume in such securities during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale.
OUR STOCK IS A SPECULATIVE INVESTMENT THAT MAY RESULT IN LOSSES TO INVESTORS.
Our securities are characterized as microcap stock. The term “microcap stock” applies to companies with low or “micro” capitalizations, meaning the total value of the company’s stock. Microcap companies typically have limited assets. Microcap stocks tend to be low priced and trade in very low volumes. Therefore, your entire investment may be lost should REAC be unable to completely implement its business plan.
We might ultimately list on the OTC Bulletin Board® (the “OTCBB”). The OTCBB is an electronic quotation system that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information for many OTC securities that are not listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market or a national securities exchange. Brokers who subscribe to the system can use the OTCBB to look up prices or enter quotes for OTC securities.
Although the NASD oversees the OTCBB, the OTCBB is not part of the NASDAQ Stock Market.
Companies that trade their stocks on major exchanges and in the NASDAQ Stock Market must meet minimum listing standards. For example, they must have minimum amounts of net assets and minimum numbers of shareholders. In contrast, companies on the OTCBB or the Pink Sheets do not have to meet any minimum standards. While all investments involve risk, microcap stocks are among the most risky. Many microcap companies tend to be new and have no proven track record. Some of these companies have no assets or operations. Others have products and services that are still in development or have yet to be tested in the market. Another risk that pertains to microcap stocks involves the low volumes of trades. Because microcap stocks trade in low volumes, any size of trade can have a large percentage impact on the price of the stock.
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements about our business, financial condition and prospects that reflect our management’s assumptions and good faith beliefs based on information currently available. We can give no assurance that the expectations indicated by such forward-looking statements will be realized. If any of our assumptions should prove incorrect, or if any of the risks and uncertainties underlying such expectations should materialize, our actual results may differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.
The key factors that are not within our control and that may have a direct bearing on operating results include, but are not limited to, acceptance of our proposed services and the products we expect to market, our ability to establish a customer base, managements’ ability to raise capital in the future, the retention of key employees and changes in the regulation of our industry.
There may be other risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict. When used in this prospectus, words such as, “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify and qualify forward-looking statements, although there may be certain forward-looking statements not accompanied by such expressions.
All the proceeds from the sale of shares being registered in this registration statement will be used for down payment towards Federal guaranteed business loans .
The price of the shares has been determined by our board of directors. We selected the $1.00 price for the sale of our shares of common stock. Currently there is no market for the shares. When our shares are listed for trading on the Bulletin Board, the price of the shares will be established by the market.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We anticipate that any earnings will be retained for development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future. Our Board of Directors has sole discretion to pay cash dividends based on our financial condition, results of operation, capital requirements, contractual obligations, and other relevant factors.
There is no selling security holders
Our common stock is currently held amongst a small number of shareholders. Therefore, the current and potential market for our common stock is limited and the liquidity of our shares may be severely limited. We cannot guarantee that a meaningful trading market will develop.
If a market ever develops for our Common Stock, the trading price of GMFAHL’s common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various events or factors, many of which are beyond GMFAHL’s control. As a result, investors may be unable to sell their shares at or greater than the price they are being offered at.
Selling stockholders may offer their shares at various times in one or more of the following transactions:
| 1. | In the over-the-counter market; |
| 2. | On any exchange, which the shares may hereafter be listed; |
| 3. | In negotiated transactions other than on such exchanges; |
| 4. | By pledge to secure debts and other obligations; |
| 5. | In connection with the writing of non-traded and exchange-traded call options, in hedge transactions, in covering previously established short positions and in settlement of other transactions in standardized or over-the-counter options; or |
| 6. | In a combination of any of the above transactions. |
The selling stockholders may only offer and sell, from time to time, common stock using this prospectus in transactions at a fixed offering price of $1.00 per share until a trading market develops in our common stock, at which time the selling stockholders may sell shares at market prices, which may vary, or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use broker/dealers to sell their shares. The broker/dealers will either receive discounts or commissions from the selling stockholders, or they will receive commissions from purchasers of shares.
The selling stockholders may transfer the shares by means of gifts, donations and contributions. This prospectus may be used by the recipients of such gifts, donations and contributions to offer and sell the shares received by them, directly or through brokers, dealers or agents and in private or public transactions; however, if sales pursuant to this prospectus by any such recipient could exceed 500 shares, than a prospectus supplement would need to be filed pursuant to Section 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act to identify the recipient as a Selling Stockholder and disclose any other relevant information. We will file a prospectus supplement to name successors to any named selling shareholders who are able to use the prospectus to resell the shares. Such prospectus supplement would be required to be delivered, together with this prospectus, to any purchaser of such shares.
In order to comply with the applicable securities laws of certain states, the securities may not be offered or sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in such states or an exemption from such registration or qualification requirement is available and with which GMFAHL and the selling stockholders have complied.

Business of Issuer
Principal Services and Principal Markets

Business Summary
Green Meadows farms And Holdings Limited will provide a unique, alliance of premium organic farms and value - added processing plants and may add an orgaic Dairy farm for the by-products from potato processing . GMFAHL plans on capitalizing on the rapid popularity growth trend of the Organic industry and provides multiple sources of revenue from potato production and value-added processing and strong real estate asset growth for savvy investors. GMFAHL is a special situation with a powerful business model and impressive management team that is focused on major success in the thriving “Organic” industry.
Industry Background and Competition
GMFAHL plans to develop an alliance of premium organic potato farms and processing plants , as well as eventual ownership of Trade marks for different products . GMFAHL plans on capitalizing on the rapid popularity growth trend of the Organic industry and provides multiple sources of revenue and strong real estate asset growth. GMFAHL has developed solid business model to acquire prime real estate and employ an impressive management team.
GMFAHL has been formed to eventually build substantial real estate equity and create an increasing income stream from potential GMFAHL properties, farming operations, and processing plants. Furthermore, the proposed GMFAHL anticipates creating a network of GMFAHL owned properties that are designed for the production of raw organic potatoes and the building of potato processing plants to develop the various profit potentials offered in several areas of the “Organic industry”. As GMFAHL continues to grow, the Company plans to create a branded name of finished frozen potato products . To provide additional value to the company, the GMFAHL divisions plan to eventually have an organic dairy cow division which can make use of the grain and hay need in potato rotation. of horses and . The proposed partnership programs are expected to provide an additional source of substantial revenues to the GMFAHL . The GMFAHL business model is planned to be a comprehensive and diversified formula to insure continual high asset growth, as well as income streams, and provide maximum success for GMFAHL’s investors. Competition for frozen organic potato products is small as this is a new market .
The GMFAHL alliance plans primarily to be a farming/processing enterprise and intends to take advantage of the three main areas of organic potato products and thus may be divided into three primary divisions, with each division headed by an expert within that particular field.
| a. | Farming division-growing organic potatoes |
| b. | Processing division - Processing of raw organic potatoes |
| c. | Sales Division- Sales and marketing of finished product |
Real Estate Plan
Historically, investing in well-located, undeveloped raw land has proven to be an excellent long-term, highly profitable investment . We plan on buying land suitable for potato production , a parcel of land suitable for a processing plant and suitable for waste water treatment which will then be applied as irrigation to water crops . Our first processing plant is planed on being built in Louisiana .We will/are looking at other areas for future GMFAHL operations .
As an existing going business entity or depending upon the location and land value, the property can be redeveloped or sold for a “higher and better use”.
If implemented properly, GMFAHL’s farming and processing operations will basically create the same type of operation in another state . In essence, the Company will create a multi national company that will have a name brand product appealing to consumers . . Importantly, the revenues from a farming/processing operation potentially will be much greater than the revenues generated by a company with no brand name .
GMFAHL’s initial planned facility is projected to have between 1000 and 10000 total acres, and to begin quickly generating substantial cash flow once processing plant is built. The over all operation is projected to be highly profitable since as a company ,it can control operations of a raw product and control processing into a value added product that should bring in a premium to our sales division ., GMFAHL can operate on a very low overhead basis and bring top dollar for a finished product .
As indicated above, the creation of the business plan for GMFAHL has been based upon a number of separate Divisions. Each of these Divisions, when and if developed in the future as the business model matures, will be treated as a separate business entity and separate profit center for accounting purposes. However, all financial reporting of the individual divisions will be aggregated for GMFAHL financial reporting to shareholders and regulatory authorities.

To provide additional value to the company, the GMFAHL divisions plan to eventually build an organic dairy of 5000 dairy cows and a dairy processing plant. Manure by-products from dairy cows will be used as organic fertilizers to increase potato production. In many cases these same farm equipment used at GMFAHL properties for potato operations can be used for dairy farming ..

Strategic Plans and Corporate Objectives
GMFAHL plans to aggressively expand its footprint by acquiring suitable properties throughout North America and duplicating its operations over the next two fiscal years. The acquisition plan will be on a high growth schedule dependent on the use of GMFAHL equity to complete such transactions. The ideal property will be one that has an existing row crop/grain production operation and whose size would be about 1000 to 10000 acres, with a large portion of the property located on flat terrain. Also, the property must contain the proper soil conditions for production of organic potatoes . Proper soil conditions are imperative as they lower the cost of potato production and make the Fields much easier to maintain during periods of adverse weather conditions.
GMFAHL management feels that to develop the brand name, each GMFAHL facility must be a premier first class property. Since many Organic consumers are very concerned about the quality of foods they eat, it is important to present a safe and quality product to the consumer . This will be accomplished by both the physical appearance of the facility, the skill level of the GMFAHL growers and image and taste of finished product. We also plan on keeping our customers up to date on our practices of growing organic potatoes .
All GMFAHL management and personnel have been entrusted with the specific goal of operating each and every facet of the total operation in accordance to GMFAHL standards.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials and the Names of Principal Suppliers
We will be using raw organic potatoes grown by GMFAHL and quality contract growers .

Number of total employees and number of full time employees

Currently, Allison J MacPhee, our President, is the only person providing a time commitment to the company on a full-time basis and expects to devote a minimum of 40 hours per week to our operations. Mr. Macphee is prepared to dedicate additional time, as needed. At this time, there are no full or part-time employees. We do not expect to hire any additional employees over the next 3 months, although the possibility does exist that administrative staff may be required should sufficient business develop.

Management’s Discussion and Plan of Operation
Green Meadows Farms And Holdings Limited was incorporated in the State of Louisiana on July 16, 2006. GMFAHL is a startup and has not yet realized any revenues. Our efforts, to date, have focused primarily on the development and implementation of our business plan. No development-related expenses have been or will be paid to affiliates of GMFAHL.
During the period from inception through January 15, 2007, we generated no revenues .
Our officers and director believes that our cash on hand as of January 15, 2007 in the amount of $100 is not sufficient to maintain our current minimal level of operations for current calendar year. However, generating sales in the next 12 months is imperative for us to continue as a going concern. We believe that we will be required to generate a minimum of approximately $200,000 in revenues over the next 12 months in order for us to support ongoing operations. If we do not generate sufficient revenues to meet our expenses over the next 12 months, we may need to raise additional capital by issuing capital stock in exchange for cash in order to continue as a going concern. There are no formal or informal agreements to attain such financing. We can not assure you that any financing can be obtained or, if obtained, that it will be on reasonable terms. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for us to continue as a going concern.
Our management believes that establishing our brand name is imperative to our ability to continue as a going concern. Establishing a personal local presence is critical to reaching a broad consumer base, including web based contacts. We intend to develop a comprehensive website to offer information about our company and provide contact information. We will update the website as time and financial assets allow. The website will be primarily for contact information and some general information about the company. It will serve as our secondary method of generating service contracts.
Our management does not anticipate the need to hire additional full- or part- time employees over the next 3 months, as the services provided by our officers and director appear sufficient at this time. However, the possibility does exist that administrative staff and services may be required.
Mr. Macphee, an officer and director, recognizes that we are required to continuously file reports with the SEC and any exchange we may be listed on, and understands the resultant increased costs of being a public reporting company. Mr. Macphee believes that investors are more agreeable to invest in a company that intends to become a public company rather than to remain private with no foreseeable exit strategy for shareholders.
In addition, Mr. Macphee believes that one benefit of being a public company is the access to capital markets. We believe that if additional funds are required to finance our continuing operations, we may be able to obtain more capital by pursuing an offering of equity or debt securities.
We do not expect to incur any significant research and development costs.
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
We currently do not own any significant plant or equipment that we would seek to sell in the near future.
We do not intend to engage in a merger with, or effect an acquisition of, another company in the foreseeable future.
GMFAHL’s uses the mailing address of 872 Upper Meadowbank Road Cornwall Prince Edward Island Canada. GMFAHL is not leasing a physical office space at this time in order to maintain a better control of recurring costs. Additionally, the services provided by GMFAHL better lend themselves to GMFAHL representatives meeting potential clients at the potential client’s principal place of business for not only convenience of the potential client, but for GMFAHL to better under the business nature of the potential client. We believe that this arrangement is suitable and most cost-effective at this time. We also believe that we will not need to lease any facilities for at least the next 6 months. There are currently no proposed programs for the renovation, improvement or development of the facilities we currently use.
In July 2006, GMFAHL issued 24,000,000 shares of restricted of $1.00 par value common stock to Allison MacPhee, President ,secretary and director, in exchange for services .

This is in addition to the dealers’ obligation to deliver a prospectus when acting as underwriters and with respect to their unsold allotments or subscriptions.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Section 83A(1) of the Louisiana Business Corporation Law permits corporations to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, including any action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another business, foreign or nonprofit corporation, partnership, joint venture, or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Section 83A(2) provides that, in case of actions by or in the right of the corporation, the indemnity shall be limited to expenses, including attorneys fees and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the action to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, and that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation, unless, and only to the extent that the court shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.
Section 83(B) provides that to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any such action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.
Any indemnification under Section 83A, unless ordered by the court, shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in a specific case upon a determination that the applicable standard of conduct has been met, and such determination shall be made:
• by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit, or proceeding, or
• if such a quorum is not obtainable and the board of directors so directs, by independent legal counsel, or
• by the stockholders.
The indemnification provided for by Section 83 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the person indemnified is entitled under any bylaw, agreement, authorization of stockholders or directors, regardless of whether directors authorizing such indemnification are beneficiaries thereof, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs and legal representative; however, no such other indemnification measure shall permit indemnification of any person for the results of such person's willful or intentional misconduct.
Section 24 of the Louisiana Business Corporation Law provides that the articles of incorporation of a corporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director or officer to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer:
• for any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders.
• for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law.
• who knowingly or without the exercise of reasonable care and inquiry votes in favor of a dividend paid in violation of Louisiana law, any other unlawful distribution, payment or return of assets to be made to the stockholders, or stock purchases or redemptions in violation of Louisiana law.
• for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit.
Article VII of GMFAHL’s Articles of Incorporation contains the provisions permitted by Section 24 of the Louisiana Business Corporation Law and permits the Board of Directors to take further action to provide indemnification to, and limit the liability of, to the full extent permitted by law, the directors and officers of GMFAHL by causing GMFAHL to enter into contracts with our directors and officers, adopting by-laws or resolutions, and causing us to procure and maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance or other similar arrangements, notwithstanding that some or all of the members of the Board of Directors acting with respect to the foregoing may be parties to such contracts or beneficiaries of such by-laws or resolutions or insurance or arrangements.
Article VII permits the Board of Directors to cause GMFAHL to approve for our direct and indirect subsidiaries limitation of liability and indemnification provisions comparable to the foregoing.
Section 7.01 of GMFAHL's by-laws makes mandatory the indemnification of any of our officers and directors against any expenses, costs, attorneys' fees, judgments, punitive or exemplary damages, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him (as they are incurred) by reason of his position as director or officer of GMFAHL or any subsidiary or other specified positions if he is successful in his defense of the matter on the merits or otherwise or has been found to have met the applicable standard of conduct.
The standard of conduct is met when the director or officer is found to have acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of GMFAHL, and, in the case of a criminal action or proceeding, with no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. No indemnification is permitted in respect of any matter as to which a director or officer shall have been finally adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable for willful or intentional misconduct or to have obtained an improper personal benefit, unless, and only to the extent that the court shall determine upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.
Section 11 further provides that indemnification granted pursuant to this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer is or may become entitled under any statute, article of incorporation, by-law, authorization of stockholders or directors, agreement or otherwise; and that we intend by this section to indemnify and hold harmless a director or officer to the fullest extent permitted by law.
We maintain a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy. We have entered into indemnity agreements with our directors and executive officers, pursuant to which we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to maintain in effect directors' and officers' liability insurance comparable to that currently in effect, unless such insurance is not reasonably available or, in the reasonable business judgment of the Board of Directors, there is insufficient benefit to us from such insurance. The agreements also provide that we will, to the maximum extent permitted by law, indemnify each director and executive officer against any costs and expenses, attorneys' fees, judgments, punitive or exemplary damages, fines, excise taxes or amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any claim involving him by reason of his position as director or officer that are in excess of the coverage provided by any such insurance, provided that he meets certain minimum standards of conduct.
The following table sets forth the costs and expenses payable by the Registrant in connection with the sale of the common stock being registered. GMFAHL has agreed to pay all costs and expenses relating to the registration of its common stock. All amounts are estimated.
Edgar Conversion Fees | | $ | 1,000 | |
Transfer Agent and Printing Costs | | | 500 | |

In July 2006, we issued 24,000,000 shares of our common stock to Allison MacPhee, our founding shareholder and the President, secretary and director, in exchange for services . This sale of stock did not involve any public offering, general advertising or solicitation. At the time of the issuance, Mr. MacPhee had fair access to and was in possession of all available material information about our company, as he is the sole officer and director of GMFAHL. The shares bear a restrictive transfer legend in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. On the basis of these facts, we claim that the issuance of stock to our founding shareholder qualifies for the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

In this Registration Statement, Green Meadows Farms And Holdings Limited is including undertakings required pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act.
Under Rule 415 of the Securities Act, Green Meadows Farms And Holdings Limited is registering securities for an offering to be made on a continuous or delayed basis in the future. The registration statement pertains only to securities (a) the offering of which will be commenced promptly, will be made on a continuous basis and may continue for a period in excess of 30 days from the date of initial effectiveness and (b) are registered in an amount which, at the time the registration statement becomes effective, is reasonably expected to be offered and sold within two years from the initial effective date of the registration.
Based on the above-referenced facts and in compliance with the above-referenced rules, Green Meadows Farms And Holdings Limited includes the following undertakings in this Registration Statement:
A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period, in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of the Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.
(1) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(2) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
B. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 14 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements of filing on Form SB-2 and authorized this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, in the City of Cornwall ,Province of Price Edward Island Canada on January 23, 2007.
