Our Model
-
Forever Farmland
With the loss of so much farmland each day, it’s an imperative to keep a sizable portion of this property in agricultural production. We are keeping this “Forever Farmland” with tools such as agricultural and conservation easements and land trusts.
-
Participatory Design
Great things result from great processes. We think a great way to plan a community is to start by engaging all stakeholders. We define a stakeholder as anyone who will be positively or negatively impacted or anyone who can positively or negatively impact this project. This is why we are hosting a series of design events to crowdsource ideas!
-
Development Agreement
The output of the participatory design series will be a master plan with detailed plans for the agrihood. These plans will be packaged into a document known as the development agreement. This deal will then be shopped around to developers who will then build to spec.
