The Farmers Land Trust and Blue Rock Station and Farm have come together in collaboration, partnership, and trust with Women, Food and Agriculture Network and Women's Peacepower Foundation to manifest bold and innovative actions that create a new relationship and structure for land transition, ownership, access, tenure, and equity. This collaborative embraces shared goals of protecting and preserving agrarian food and living systems in a way that holds and caringly and purposefully transitions a unique and important model of regenerative agriculture and sustainable living to create next generation enterprise and partnership opportunities.
