Land Matching
1 on 1 Land Matching
Whether you are a retiring farmer or landowner seeking the next generation to care for your land or a beginning farmer looking for land to begin or expand your farming enterprise, we have resources to help. PFI’s farmland viability coordinator and the farmland access navigators work with land seekers and landowners, offering consultations to clarify goals and next steps along the way.
Once land seekers and landowners identify their goals related to finding land or to farm transition, we can work with you to find a land match within our networks. This could be renting land to a new farmer, matching a retiring farmer with a beginner to work on their operation with intention to transition the farm or selling land.
