This year, we are celebrating 20 years of growing the future of farming and reflecting on all the good work we've accomplished over the last two decades. We simply could not do this work without our many members! Throughout 2019 we'll be talking with some MFT members about why they participate in this work to protect farmland and support farmers. Click on the videos below, and check out more member stories on our 20th Anniversary website.
