Clark County's First Protected Farm in Ridgefield

Washington Farmland Trust has permanently protected April Joy Farm, a 24-acre certified organic operation in Ridgefield, marking the first farmland conservation easement funded by Clark County's Legacy Lands program. Clark County's agricultural acreage has decreased by nearly 40% since 2017, and Ridgefield's median home price has grown 147% in the last decade. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/business/washington-farmland-trust-supported-by-clark-county-legacy-lands-protects-its-first-farm-in-the-county/ #WashingtonFarmlandTrust #ClarkCounty #Ridgefield #FarmlandConservation #LegacyLands #AprilJoyFarm #OrganicFarming #FoodEquity #PacificNorthwest #Agriculture
