Urban Growers Workshop Leasing Land for Growing Projects

Are you a farmer or gardener in need of land? Or a landowner searching for a grower? Learn how to take the next steps. 

Join us at Grow Pittsburgh’s Garden Dreams for a panel discussion with growers, landowners, and a lawyer who specializes in agricultural businesses. You’ll hear real-life stories from farmers who are growing on leased land, and learn about a landowning organization that leases to multiple growers and entrepreneurs.

We’ll explore different models for land use agreements and share some key relational, logistical, and legal considerations to keep in mind as you evaluate the needs and next steps for your project or your land.
