In 2026, we will increase the number of farmers with secure land tenure and keep more farmland in active agriculture across New England. Through education, innovation and a variety of access/transfer methods, we will provide direct technical assistance and advising to at least 450 farmers and landowners, strengthening farmland access and secure tenure. We help strengthen the resilience and viability of New England farmers by providing the knowledge and tools they need to succeed.
Fundraising Events:
Generally, we don’t hold fundraising events (although watch our website for updates!). We do welcome gifts of any size, from small to large. Opportunities may emerge for top circle donors.
Giving Opportunities:
There are many ways to support Land For Good! We have a robust business sponsorship package, as well as many private giving options from one-time donations, to planned/legacy gifts to gifts of stock or land. Read more here: www.landforgood.org/show-support/ways-to-give. Reach out to Rachel Brice at rachel@landforgood.org with any questions or to discuss your options.
Volunteer Opportunities:
We welcome discussions about your volunteer contribution. Particularly, video creation/editing skills are welcome at this time, as well as volunteers to host “friendraising” house parties.
