Ontario is facing an alarming decrease in active farmland. Ontario Farmland Trust estimates that more than 300 acres of farmland are developed or go out of production each day in this province. Meanwhile, the population continues to grow, bringing new demands for food and farm products.
You can be part of the solution! By renting your land or creating a business relationship with a farmer on your land, you can help keep farmland in farming.
Find Farmland is a free tool created by Farms at Work to aid in farmland protection efforts by making it easier for farmland owners to connect with others interested in access to land opportunities.
