Giving
We selected these causes because they are crucial for the progress of human-scale, regenerative farming. New and young farmers are the future of farming, and yet, access to land is a significant barrier to them. Furthermore, thousands of acres of farmland are lost to development every day, and millions of acres will likely need to be passed to new farmers in the years ahead. Protecting agricultural land enables long-term food security to our communities and provides essential environmental benefits. Finally, we support agricultural equity because farmers who are Black, Indigenous, and people of color have not had access to resources and opportunities that other farmers have long had available to them.
