Farms

We are increasing the viability of farming in Vermont by growing new farmers, helping existing farms grow their businesses, and by developing markets for producers. 

Land

We are promoting the sustainable use of agricultural lands by taking care of the one-of-a-kind Intervale, and by growing and planting tens of thousands of native trees and shrubs each year along Vermont’s rivers and streams to protect water quality.
