Farmers now have a new guide to help them identify available land for farming and acreage for leasing.
The University of Connecticut and the American Farmland Trust (AFT) produce the resource for farmers and landowners in a state that has the third highest farm real estate values in the nation.
"We hope this guide will serve to connect those looking for farmland with those with farmland to lease," said Cris Coffin, director of AFT New England division. "Whether it's 5 acres or 100, farmland leased by communities, land trusts and institutions to farmers, or used for community farms, can help grow Connecticut's farms, food and economy."
