LandLink Project Launched

November 21.  7 p.m. 4-H Acres, Lower Creek Road off Rt. 13.  Finger Lakes LandLink is a new project of Cornell Cooperative Extension South Central NY Agriculture Program that seeks to improve land access for beginning and established farmers by matching land owners and land seekers locally and in the Finger Lakes region.  The Finger Lakes LankLink will be an online service where farmers and landowners can search either the land available or farmer database to find an appropriate match.  Cornell Cooperative Extension will provide resources and consulting to help facilitate the matching process.  The initial pilot counties for this project include: Tompkins, Tioga, Schuyler, Cortland, and Chemung.   Land owners who are interested in having their land farmed, either through leasing, selling or sharing their land with a farmer, should contact Cooperative Extension and attend an upcoming information meeting. Beginning and established farmers who are seeking land to start or expand their agricultural enterprise, are also being invited to get on a preliminary list of farm seekers.  During the meeting, landowners will learn about options for using their land, leasing arrangements, and the benefits of working with farmers to gain potential property tax breaks, along with the benefit of having someone utilize land for farming and food production.  If you are a landowner or farmer interested in the Finger Lakes LandLink project, please contact: Ian Bailey (idb6 AT cornell.edu

) or Monika Roth (607-272-2292, mr55 AT cornell.edu).
