Send the Seeds of Inspiration for Local Food

Local Food at the Farmers Market

Send the Seeds of Inspiration!

Dear Agriculture,

Girl Eating Peas

Send the Seeds of Inspiration!

Donate
This spring, many have been inspired to plant a garden: from the White House, to community gardens and backyards across the country.

As plants in gardens start to grow this spring, you can support our efforts to help local farms and food take root in your community! And we all know at least one person we’d like to inspire with a reminder that local food starts with seeds planted in the land, and grows with a lot of care and work by farmers

For that reason, we want to help you sow the seeds of support for farms, farmland, and the food they supply. Make a donation today, and we will send off a special message and seed packet to inspire someone to support local farms and food in their community.

Maybe you want your town planning commission to think about what is lost when food is paved over by poorly planned development!

Maybe you want to make sure that schools are feeding our children fresh and local foods and that they know that food comes from the farm and the soil!

Maybe you want to thank a teacher, your mother, father or friend for being a leader in making farmland protection, local farms and food a priority in your life and the lives of others!

It is up to you to decide who could use a little seed packet of inspiration!

With the money we raise, we will get our hands "in the soil" working to support local farmers and the growth of local food in your community and beyond! Take this opportunity to send some seeds of inspiration and encourage the recipient to support local farms and food in their community! 

Sincerely,

Your Friends at American Farmland Trust
