Alberta Land Linking Workshop

Young Agrarians

This online workshop will bring together landholders and new farmers in Alberta to explore the land-linking process.

<h3>Are you a landholder looking for farmers? Are you a new farmer looking for land?</h3>Land access is a major barrier to new and aspiring farmers. With increasing land prices, ownership is often not an option. At the same time, many landholders don’t have family members who want to take on the farm or have land that is not currently in production. There is a growing opportunity for new farmers, land managers and food growers, who come from a wide variety of backgrounds, to explore creative land sharing arrangements with those offering land.WHEN: November 9, 2022 from 7:00 – 8:30 PM (MT)WHERE: Online on Treaty 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 territory and Métis land in what is today known as Alberta. Join us from the comfort of your couch, office, tractor, compost heap – wherever you find yourself able to tune in!FORMAT: Online webinar by video conference &amp; teleconference. Details to be provided upon registration.COST: Free to everyone and donations are welcome!This workshop is for landholders and land seekers, and will cover the following topics:<ul><li>Different land agreement options</li><li>How to communicate goals and vision</li><li>Available tools to find the farmer or farmland for them</li></ul><h3>Workshop Description</h3>This workshop will introduce participants to the Land Access Process of matching landholders and land seekers. The Process goes through all the steps that help ensure a strong relationship that benefits both parties in the land arrangement.
