Matching Farmers and Land
Have you heard about CT Farmlink? CT Farmlink helps farmland owners connect with farmland seekers.
The program is funded by the Community Investment Act and administered by the CT Department of Agriculture, in partnership with Connecticut Farmland Trust.
There is a new generation of farmers who want to be tomorrow’s stewards of the land today, but they need land to work. Surveys of beginning farmers list land access as the #1 challenge of farming in the U.S. CT Farmlink assists with the transition between generations of landowners to keep farmland in production.
If you are starting your own farm operation, a current farmer looking to expand, or a family seeking a new generation of landowners to protect your area’s agricultural legacy, please visit ctfarmlink.org for more information.
