We discuss the Farmland Commons model—a transformative approach to farmland conservation that ensures land remains in the hands of farmers and communities for generations to come. Ian breaks down how the model works, who can implement it, and the critical differences between 501(c)(3), 501(c)(2), and 501(c)(25) nonprofit structures in this context.
Ian’s insights provide a roadmap for farmers, conservationists, and community members interested in reshaping farmland ownership and resilience. Whether you’re a farmer looking for secure land access or an advocate for sustainable food systems, this episode offers valuable knowledge and inspiration.
