PROTECTING FARMLAND FOREVER
Commons Land offers permanent affordable access to farmland for emerging and BIPOC farmers in Minnesota.
FARMLAND IS SLIPPING FROM COMMUNITY HANDS
Rising land costs, consolidation, and historic inequities make it increasingly difficult for farmers to access land and build lasting livelihoods.
A NEW (OLD) WAY
OF HOLDING LAND
We use a community land trust model to remove farmland from the speculative market and place it in permanent community stewardship.
FARMLAND ROOTED IN COMMUNITY, FOREVER
FOR FARMERS
Farmers gain long-term, affordable access to land, and the security needed to invest in their operations.
Natural resources—including wetlands, native habitats, and critical water systems—are protected and restored.
FOR LAND
Communities benefit from local food production, environmental stewardship, and a more resilient agricultural landscape.
FOR COMMUNITY
A future cultivated together
