Farmers seeking land
Land Link has matched 33 new and expanding farmers with long term leases . Here are a few of the farmers that are still seeking land through the program .
n An African with 30 + years experience in farming back in my country and 4 years experience in gardening here in the USA looking for one acre of land to produce vegetables and , if possible , a small poultry operation to give my community the best vegetables and chicken . I will soon complete the Beginning Farmers training program with Eco City Farm and would like to apply my new knowledge learned .
n New farmer with more than 4 years of gardening experience looking for close to 1 / 4 acre of land to grow herbs , greens and vegetables organically . Prefer a clear land with fencing , water and storage near Burtonsville . Would prefer a hoop house / green house but it is not a must .
n We are Army veterans with 10 + years of experience and grew up around farming our whole life . Our farm will support our local community , our veteran brothers and sisters , and will help ensure access to affordable crops year round locally . We are looking for any size acreage to support our dream , veterans , church and community . Partnership , shared space , multifamily farming or any idea is worth a discussion .
n Compost Crew is looking to partner with farms to divert food scraps from the local community and make compost to improve crop yields . We are interested in leasing or buying at least a half acre of land for our composting program . Access to electric and water , a skid steer , and asphalt or concrete pad is a big plus .
n Community herbalist ready to grow ! I have been a grower of herbs in gardens large and small for many years and completed the Beginning Farmer Training Program at Eco City . Working with a mentor through Future Harvest and utilize sustainable growing practices . We grow a wide variety of aromatic medicinal plants and herbs , some culturally relevant vegetables . Looking to steward up to one acre .
n We are an employment social enterprise . Our mission is to eradicate barriers to employment faced by women impacted by the justice system , are unhoused , aged out of foster care , or are chronically unemployed . Currently , we are in a business accelerator with the American Heart Association and a program sponsored by Howard University . A land donation , long-term lease , or sale is what we are seeking . Thank you for considering our “ do good ” organization ! www . barnesvilleschool . org
