Farmland Owner Info
Are you a farmland owner with land that could be available for a new farmer to farm? If so, there could be many benefits for you, your land and your community. By making your land available to a new farmer you can:
- Ensure that your farmland will continue to be actively farmed
- Protect your investment in stewardship of the land
- Help a new farmer get started
- Support ongoing production of food for the community
- Maintain revenue by selling the farm over time, allowing an affordable option for a new farmer to start a new far.
- Share your expertise by mentoring a new farmer
- And so much more…
