Farmland Preservation
In November the Recreation and Conservation Funding Board released a ranked list of 10 WWRP farmland preservation projects to be approved by the legislature in 2009. Click on the proposed projects below, then "Take Action" to ask your legislators to support them.
The legislature added the Farmland Preservation account to the WWRP grant program in 2005. It helps cities and counties preserve working farms for their value as agricultural land, habitat, buffers against urban expansion, and as water
resources.
