Livestream | NYC Climate Week – Keeping Farmers on the Land
For 45 years, American Farmland Trust has championed regenerative agriculture and farmland protection as essential tools for building climate resilience. Farmers are on the frontlines of climate change, and the choices made by policymakers and business leaders today will shape the future of farming tomorrow.
