Make Your Land Available For Farming

Dates: Wednesday, February 22, 12:00pm – 1:00 and Wednesday, March 1, 12:00pm – 1:00pm

As a landowner, when you make land available for farming you help secure a future for farming in your community. Farmers are looking for land—from a small vegetable plot, to livestock or crops. Productive, sustainable uses for all or parts of your property can bring many rewards!  

Farming and non-farming private landowners and their representatives (real estate agents, etc.) are welcome to attend. Feel empowered and prepared to see your land used as an important piece of the crucial farmland base in New England. This virtual workshop series will help you understand your land’s potential for farming and what goes into a good farming arrangement, explore motivations, strategies, and mechanics for making any amount of land available to a farmer.
