In Washington State, 75% of farmers over the age of 65 do not have a plan to transfer their land to a new generation. At the same time, development pressure and a history of systemic racism have made access to funding, resources, and land opportunities an enormous barrier for new and beginning farmers – as well as farm tenants who wish to become owners.
Farm to Farmer aims to break down these barriers by helping local producers navigate complex systems, make meaningful connections, and co-create plans to achieve their farm business goals – all in service of sustaining a future for farming in Washington.
