The Working Lands Alliance is a statewide voice for farmland preservation efforts in Connecticut. The Alliance includes farmers, conservation and anti-hunger organizations, land trusts, local food advocates, and many others working together to protect Connecticut’s farmland. The organization works at the federal, state, and local level to engage and educate our policy makers and the public about the importance of farmland preservation. Among their successes is the creation of an innovative Community Farms Preservation Program (for the protection of smaller, food-producing farms that may not meet the criteria for the state’s traditional Farmland Preservation Program) and in 2013 helping to pass legislation that permanently protects nearly 1,000-acres of state-owned farmland at Southbury Training School.
