Dungeness Farmland
- Status
- Funded in 2007
Clallam County will use this grant to preserve 38 acres of farmland by purchasing the development rights for the land. The farm supports one of the few certified raw milk dairies in the state, and has been farmed since the late 1880s. Although a dairy most of that time, the farm also has been used for organic vegetable production. About 175 acres of adjacent lands are conserved in perpetuity for farmland or habitat. The North Olympic Land Trust and Friends of the Fields Foundation will partner with Clallam County for administration and monitoring tasks. Clallam County is contributing $349,850 in donated cash, labor, and materials.
