Leverage the Innovative Farmland Commons Model to Ignite Regeneration
Land is the bedrock of civilization, culture, and community, and humans are an integral part of it. Land is also the source of power and wealth, and is tied to historical injustices caused by colonization and privatization, eroding justice and equity. For new and aspiring farmers, the critical hurdle of land access looms large, while existing and retiring farmers find themselves forced to dismantle the legacies they've painstakingly cultivated over a lifetime. Many are left with no choice but to sell their farms for development and speculative purposes, solely to fund their retirements.
Now, an unprecedented opportunity arises before us: the chance to make a positive impact on the transition of roughly 400,000,000 acres of farmland, set to change hands through sale or inheritance in the next two decades. This immense transfer of wealth ranks among the largest the world has ever witnessed, and the way this land is transferred and managed holds greater significance than ever before.
We are hosting this workshop to help expand our view of how land and people can work together to create more regenerative and equitable outcomes.
This workshop will:
Offer insights into the history and perspective of Conservation and Community Land Trusts
Familiarize you with the innovative Farmer’s Land Trust model
Present the framework and specifics of the land trust model addressing ownership, tenure, stewardship, and equity within the Farmland Commons
Explore pathways for sellers, buyers, Regenerative Real Estate practitioners, and the land to connect, collaborate, and mutually benefit
Kindly extend invitations to your colleagues so that together, we can support the efforts of The Farmer’s Land Trust. By doing so, we aim to address historical injustices, explore avenues to de-commodify land, and foster a conversation where equitable access and regenerative land management practices can flourish.
