Farmland Protection at Work: The Fortune Farm

The Lands of Boone and Crockett officially opened for business in March of last year and finished the year with a successful accomplishment. The Fortune Farm, 187 acres in the Warrensburg community of Greene County, will forever be protected with a Conservation Easement. The Appalachian RC&D Council in partnership with The Land

Trust for Tennessee assisted the Fortune Family in permanently protecting the rural character of this beautiful tract.  The land will remain in private ownership while being farmed and managed for timber and wildlife.

The family approached the Lands of Boone & Crockett because they were seeking to make sure that the natural and rural character of the land never changed.  The Conservation Easement becomes part of the deed that stays with the land whether it is sold, passed on to heirs or given away.  Landowners work with the Land Trust and their estate planners to craft an agreement that suits their needs and desires for the future of their land.  Contact us to find out to preserve your land or to help in our efforts!
