Passing Our Fields Forward: Vision, Values & Goals Workshop
Planning for the future of farmland begins with a shared vision.
Join the Skagit County Farmland Legacy Program for the first workshop in its free winter series, Passing Our Fields Forward: Three Winter Workshops for Successful Land Transfers.
This workshop focuses on the important first steps of farmland succession planning: identifying the priorities, expectations, values, and shared goals of outgoing and incoming generations.
Farmers, ranchers, landowners, and future agricultural producers are invited to explore how thoughtful planning and open communication can help create successful farmland transitions while preserving Skagit Valley's agricultural future.
Participants will hear from knowledgeable speakers, learn through firsthand experiences, and connect with fellow farmers and agricultural professionals.
