Farmland Protection Information Session
Advertisement
Are you an Ontario County farmer or farmland owner interested in protecting your farm for generations to come?
Would you like to get some of the financial value out of your land, while maintaining ownership and agricultural usage?

.
Cornell Cooperative Extension is hosting an information session on the upcoming New York State Department of Agriculture & Markets Farmland Protection Implementation Grant at the Ontario Cooperative Extension office.
Join Cornell Cooperative Extension, Genesee Land Trust, Genesee Valley Conservancy, Finger Lakes Land Trust, and the Ontario County Soil & Water Conservation District to learn more about the Farmland Protection Program.
The Farmland Protection Program protects agricultural land through Conservation Easements with the Purchase of Development Rights (PDR). It is a multi-year process, and grant applications are anticipated to open next year. Now is a good time to start discussing what’s possible for your farm.
Conservation Easements allow landowners like you to be sure that your productive farmland will not grow houses in the future. Every conservation easement is unique to the farm, and Genesee Land Trust works very closely with individual farmers to support their vision for the future of their farm.
Coffee and snacks will be provided. Attendance is free, but registration is requested:
