A new tool is available to help new farmers get started farming

A new website is available to help new or young farmers access land and capital to begin farming. Finding Farmland was launched by National Young Farmers Coalition this week.

The website has an affordability calculator that will help farmers learn about their options for financing farmland.

Lindsey Lusher Shute, Executive Director of the organization, says the tool will give farmers credit options, the full cost of land over time, and options to make it more affordable.

The free website was made possible by a grant from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture and it was designed by Fathom Information Design.
