SUMMARY:Connecting Farmers and Landowners; Negotiating Leases
DESCRIPTION:American Farmland Trust’s mission is to save the land that sustains us by protecting farmland\, promoting sound farming practices\, and keeping farmers on the land. In partnership with Tioga County Soil & Water Conservation District\, Tioga County Economic Development and Planning\, and Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tioga County\, we at American Farmland Trust invite you to a series of interactive workshops to plan for the future of your farm. These workshops will provide guidance on making your land accessible to new farmers\, negotiating leases on farmland and provide a framework for land transfer and succession planning. We know that farmers are busy\, so we are hosting these events at three different locations throughout Tioga County. Each workshop/location will present the same information on the topic area.
