Buying or Leasing Farmland
There are many considerations to factor into any decisions on sourcing land for farming.
One resource we have that could be helpful is our Guide to Farming.
While it is meant for new farmers, the first worksheet on buying or leasing farmland may be helpful in your search for land. The Climate and Soils Consideration fact sheet and the Infrastructure fact sheet outlines some important variables to consider when finding land for your farm operation.
Another helpful resource is the Regional Navigators through Farmland for a New Generation New York. Not only do those organizations have a dedicated farmland program, the website also includes farmland listings and farmers searching for land. In our newsletter, we also share opportunities such as farmland for sale or lease, farming jobs, and more.
If you are interested in posting in our newsletter, you can send me an up to 100-word description including a web link or contact information.
