Who we are
We are a small, not-for-profit land trust operating in Brant County ON that protects and celebrates the local farmland and ecosystems.
We believe in….
- supporting small-scale organic farmers
- encouraging diversity in the farming community
- promoting our rural community through eco-cultural tourism and education
- researching creative ways to revitalize our farming community.
What we do
- We operate the Langford Schoolhouse as a community hub and we rent the Schoolhouse for a variety of events. The Schoolhouse is fully accessible and has a certified kitchen.
- We run food and farming programming and our annual SOS Fest at the Schoolhouse. The Schoolhouse is a wonderful venue for a wide variety of community events such as workshops, film nights, lectures, and musical gatherings, as well as private events such as showers, teas and socials.
- We are interested in partnering with cultural tourism businesses to promote eco-cultural cycling and canoe tours.
- We research best practices for protecting farmland and ways to integrate elders with youth in farming related workshops and events.
- In our endeavours to protect farmland, we are preparing and fundraising to purchase a farm to for new, small-scale, organic farmers. This farm will provide secure, affordable access to protected farmland.
- We provide suppers for migrant farm workers to help nourish them and feel a part of our community.
