At this event, participants will:
  • Hear from Stephen Bishop, Western Region NC FarmLink Director, about best practices, resources, and considerations for leasing farmland.
  • Learn from a local farmer currently leasing land, who will share firsthand experiences and lessons learned.
  • Connect with Local organizations working to conserve farmland.
  • Connect with other participants during a networking session designed to bring together landowners interested in leasing their land and beginning farmers seeking farmland.
This is a great opportunity to build relationships, exchange knowledge, and strengthen the local farming community.
