Help Protect Farmland for Future Generations

Across the country, farmland is being lost to development, speculation, and rising land prices. The Farmers Land Trust is working to ensure that farmland remains permanently available and affordable for farmers using regenerative, organic and biodynamic agriculture through the innovative Farmland Commons model.
When you donate a car, truck, RV, tractor, or farm machine, you're doing more than getting rid of an unused asset. You're helping create a future where farmers can afford land, communities can access local food, and working farmland remains protected for generations.
