Question by ellagirl: How can I help preserve farmland in my community?
I live in the same city that I did as a child. There was and is still some farmland. I want to help save it, and preserve it, and I am concerned that one day these areas will have strip malls, or houses on them. I don’t know how to go about helping to preserve these areas. What can I do? Who do I get in touch with to help start this process? Thank you in advance for your help!

Although I don’t know where you are from, every state has its own guidelines. I suggest looking up your local DNR (Dept of Natural Resources). You may also try this link as an aid, the one I provide is for my state of Wisconsin but it may give some useful information. http://www.farmlandinfo.org/documents/29562/THE_WISCONSIN_FARMLAND_PRESERVATION_PROGRAM_SEPT-OCT_1978.pdf
