Farmland Forever
Jefferson Land Trust works with farmers and funding agencies to preserve farmland by purchasing agricultural conservation easements that keep the land available for agriculture while compensating the landowner for the loss of development potential. This ensures prime farmland is not developed, helps to keep it affordable for the next generation of farmers, and provides a capital boost to local farm businesses.
