Ag Forever Fund

Save Oregon farmland. Support Oregon families.

Every year, more farmland in Oregon is lost to development. OAT is launching a fund to make sure we don’t miss opportunities to protect it.

INTRODUCING THE AG FOREVER FUND

The Ag Forever Fund, powered by donors like you, will give OAT the flexibility to act quickly in safeguarding working lands at risk of development. With your support, OAT can ensure that we don’t lose irreplaceable farmland simply because the timing or funding didn’t line up.

Inaugural contributions to the Ag Forever Fund will protect working lands, support low-income producers, and leverage donations for critical, time-sensitive projects like:

  • Saving a first generation ranch on the North Coast – supporting local ranchland that doesn’t qualify for federal funding

  • Protecting a small farm in the Willamette Valley – covering acquisition costs for a donated easement to keep prime farmland in production

Your donation will help OAT act quickly and strategically in saving prime farmland and ranchland all across Oregon. You can make your first contribution to the Ag Forever Fund today with the donation form below.

Every dollar donated today will protect the farmland of tomorrow.

“As a farmer, I know how important timing is. This fund allows OAT to say yes when it’s crucial: for land, livelihoods, and the future generations of Oregon agriculture.”
— Nikita Vincent, OAT Board member and Oregon farmer
