Ann Arbor's Greenbelt Program November 7, 2012

The City of Ann Arbor’s Greenbelt program is an innovative land preservation program that has protected almost 4,000 acres of farmland and open space surrounding the City of Ann Arbor, and has leveraged over $19 million through grants, landowner donations, and other locally funded programs.

During this event, a variety of landowners (both long-time and new farmers) will discuss their farms, farming rewards and challenges; why they chose to protect their land and how the Greenbelt Program has helped to keep farming viable in the Ann Arbor area.
