Washington Farmland Trust protects and stewards threatened farmland across the state. We keep land in production by making it accessible to future generations of farmers.

Local farms are essential to our daily lives. Investing in Washington farmland means healthy food for our children, thriving rural economies, and fertile, productive soil. In other words, farms impact all of us, and make our communities better places to live, work, and play.
But over the last four decades, some of Washington’s best farmland has been irreversibly lost to development. And in the next ten years, 70% of our farmers will retire without a successor in place. As the cost of land continues to rise, our state’s best farmland goes up for sale, and climate change continues to pose a threat to our natural landscape, we are working to sustain a future for farming in Washington for generations to come.
