Leasing Your Land to a Farmer
Making land available for farming is essential for our community’s agriculture.
Having a farmer on your land can be rewarding for you, too.
At this information session, we will go over the basics, including finding
and working with a farmer, information on leases, legal aspects, and community
considerations. Presenters include Becca Weaver (New Entry) and Jennifer Hashley (New Entry, Concord Agricultural Committee), beginning farmers, and landowners.
This project is supported by USDA's Northeast SARE research grant #CNE12-100 and the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, USDA, Grant #2010-49400-21765.
