Acres of farmland and ranchland protected in perpetuity through agricultural conservation easements.
Acres under reduced development pressure due to smart land-use planning and tax policies.
Catalyzed in federal and state funds to help farmers and ranchers adopt new conservation practices or protect their land.
Every acre of farmland protected, every farmer or rancher supported, and every partnership built contributes to a more resilient agricultural future. Across the country, we work alongside farmers, ranchers, and landowners to protect farmland, promote sound farming practices, and keep farmers on the land. These relationships keep us grounded in real-world challenges while allowing us to test and scale innovative solutions. The stories featured here highlight the tangible impact of this work, demonstrating how our programs are helping people and communities thrive while shaping a more sustainable future for agriculture.
