Are you looking for a fun way to benefit local farmland and get out into the community this summer? PCC Farmland Trust will be participating at Garlic Fest in Buckley this summer and we need your help to staff our informational table. Our tabling events help us reach out and talk to many people about the work we do to conserve farmland. You will be helping us foster new community relationships and further our farmland conservation work! This volunteer opportunity is also a great way to learn more about our work in sustainable agriculture in western Washington. Help support our work by talking to folks about the importance of protecting sustainable farmland while applying fun farm-themed temporary tattoos!
Haven't tabled before? Not a problem! Sign up for an event and we will do a quick training with you on how to table and engage community members with suggested talking points!

Mission Statement
We are PCC Farmland Trust : a nonprofit, 501 (c)(3) land trust whose mission is to secure, preserve and steward threatened farmland in the Northwest, ensuring that generations of local farmers productively farm using sustainable growing methods. The Farmland Trust takes its mission one step further by working to place farmers on rescued property, actively producing food for the local community.
Description
One thing is certain: everyone, everywhere needs to eat food every day. And as we lose Washington farmland at an incredible rate--23,000 acres each year, about the size of Lake Washington--we are facing a future in which our ability to feed ourselves is severely compromised.
PCC Farmland Trust is leading a call to action and increasing awareness about why it’s so urgent that we save what’s left of one of our most valuable natural resources: farmland.
