FARM TRUSTS

Every community needs a percentage of their farmland in production to meet local and regional needs. Our focus is to de-commodify farmland, permanently removing it from the potential housing stock, and secure it for future generations of farmers by purchasing it and placing it into state-wide local Farm Trusts. This enables the land to be farmed and rent is a percent of the revenue earned, so the farmer can never have their land foreclosed, and can never go bankrupt. It’s a shared risk shared reward model, as in good years the total rent increases, bad years the rent decreases by always remaining a percent of sales. The goal is to stabilize farms and farmers financially, so they can focus on doing what they do, provide high-quality food for the greater community.
