RFP Now Available for Opportunity to Purchase Chimacum Farmland


Author: Jefferson Land Trust | 09/23/24
       

Beaver Valley farmland with a field in the foreground and a forested ridge in the background.

Beaver Valley farmland that is being protected with a restrictive easement and will be offered for sale through an open application process.

Jefferson Land Trust is excited to be using the Buy+Protect+Sell farmland conservation model to permanently protect 47 acres of farmland in Chimacum’s Beaver Valley. With this model, a land trust buys important farmland, protects it with an agricultural conservation easement, and then sells the land to the next farmer or rancher at a price that‘s reduced because of the conservation easement.

The Land Trust will be selling this protected Beaver Valley farmland through an open application process that’s now underway.

The full RFP (Request for Proposals) is now available. To view it, please visit saveland.org/beaver-valley-farmland-RFP.

All interested applicants are encouraged to read the RFP and complete a pre-application questionnaire before midnight November 17, 2024.

For more information, including a link to the pre-application questionnaire and details about the application process, visit saveland.org/beaver-valley-farmland-RFP.
