Welcome to Mineral County\u2019s Farmland Protection Program<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n
\n

Our mission is to preserve Mineral County\u2019s land and economy by helping landowners to permanently protect their farmlands.<\/h3>\n

Farmland is important to our economy, food security, and rural landscape. Good soils and the labor of our farmers have given us the beautiful and productive farms we have today. We hope to continue that legacy- to ensure that quality farmlands are available for the future.<\/p>\n

Landowners wanting to limit development on their farms may, with the help of the Farmland Protection Board, place conservation easements on their properties. These voluntary easements restrict certain types of development and land use. Easement restrictions and allowances are unique to each property and landowner. Landowners continue to own and operate normally on their properties. The difference is the peace of mind that the land they\u2019ve worked hard to cultivate will remain available for farming long into the future.<\/p>\n\n

We hope to ensure that quality farmlands are available for the future.<\/h3><\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
