In this episode I talk with Jess Laggis, the Farmland Protection Director with Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy (SAHC). We get into how land trusts function and how conservation easements can be used to keep farmland protected from development pressure. We talk about the practical aspects of putting your land into an easement as a landowner as well as the nitty-gritty legal structures involved, and how land trusts like SAHC help guide the process for land owners.
