New blog post!
Over the next 2 decades, at least 10 million acres, or 64% of Oregon’s agricultural land, will change owners. What are the future of these farms? To help set farmers up for success, Tualatin SWCD offered two free half-day workshops to support local farmers in their succession planning journey.

Read all about it here: https://tualatinswcd.org/succession-planning-workshops-2026/
