The legacy of farmland: announcing the Agrarian Circle

The PCC Farmland Trust is beginning to focus more on the long-term planning that will ensure it can carry on its work for another 10, 20 or 100 years — until it’s no longer needed.

We’ve been operating for 10 years and have saved four farms, but our goal is to preserve many more farms across the state of Washington and see them farmed organically in perpetuity.

That’s why we’re pleased to announce the Agrarian Circle — a program that designates the PCC Farmland Trust in your will — so this important work can continue, long after we’re gone. Local, organic farmland is a legacy we are passing on to future generations, and now it can be part of your personal legacy as well.

Why is it important for the Trust to know it’s in your will? First, because we want to celebrate your decision NOW! It also helps enable us to plan for future growth, an endowment, or other new programming to support organic farms and farmers.

We’ll plan to gather every year as a group and celebrate our dedication to a future full of “earthly” possibilities. As Wendell Berry says, “The soil is the great connector of our lives, the source and destination of all.”

Call us for more information (206-547-9855) or visit pccfarmlandtrust.org. Use our online form if you’d like to make a donation. Let’s plan for the future!

Speaking of legacies: To celebrate our 10-year anniversary, please join us in honoring those (listed right) who have been donors since the beginning.
