The purpose of this guidebook is to outline equitable, replicable models for transferring protected farmland in a way that sustains agricultural viability, ensures long-term land stewardship, and increases access for historically underserved farmers.
This publication focuses specifically on the “sell” stage of Buy-Protect-Sell (BPS) projects — a strategy used by land trusts and conservation partners to purchase, protect, and thoughtfully transfer farmland.
