FARMLAND FOREVER
Compass Rose, Finnriver, Kodama, SpringRain and Sunfield farms are permanently protected as working farmland by Jefferson Land Trust. For over 30 years, JLT has worked in creative partnerships with local farmers to keep land open for food production for generations to come. This ensures prime farmland is not developed and provides support to local farm families and businesses. More at saveland.org.
