Farmland Protection Tools for the Berkshires

This special webinar will focus on farmland protection tools and funding sources for land trusts and municipalities in the Berkshires.

Massachusetts is losing farmland faster than we can save it, and land trusts and towns can play a part in ensuring land remains available for future generations of farmers. There are many programs (and lots of funding) available to help protect farmland. This special webinar will focus on farmland protection tools and funding sources for land trusts and municipalities in the Berkshires. Wednesday, August 7th, 2024, 6:30pm – 8:00pm Hosted by American Farmland Trust. Presenters include: Kathleen Doherty – American Farmland Trust Nick Pitel – Berkshires Natural Resources Council Sarah Gardner – Williams College, Williamstown Ag Commission, and American Farmland Trust Kathy Orlando – Sheffield Land Trust and Mass Land Trust Coalition.
