| Welcome to Land Link Montana |
Welcome to Land Link Montana, a farm and ranch transfer program to connect the next generation of farmers and ranchers to land and resources to establish successful operations.As generations come and go, our goal is to see western Montana's farm and ranchlands maintain their highest and best use: agriculture. That means helping beginning farmers access land, while providing them with resources and technical assistance to establish viable land tenure arrangements. Similarly, it means helping landowners and retiring producers find a farmer or rancher to lease or sell their land to, or perhaps mentor into an existing business. Feel free to read more background information about us. Land Link Montana's matching service connects beginning and relocating farmers and ranchers with landowners who want to see their land in production. If you are a retiring producer or landowner, we can help you find the right farmer or rancher to lease or purchase your land. Or, if you are looking for land to farm or ranch, we can help you find the land that will help you achieve your agricultural goals. Our matching service has just expanded to included the following counties: * Flathead * Granite * Lake * Missoula * Powell * Ravalli * Sanders That gives us a range from Kalispell to Hamiton to Deer Lodge. If you are outside of our current service area, we still encourage you to get in touch with us and check out our other resources on farm and ranch transitions. Other resources to assist with farm and ranch transfers will be available shortly. We welcome your input on which existing and new resources would be most useful to helping beginning farmers start agricultural businesses, retiring growers sell or lease their land or mentor an upcoming producer, and landowners weigh all their options. Should you have any questions about Land Link Montana, please don't hesitate to contact us; we are a people-based program and would love to hear from you. |
