Farmland Protection Partners, LLC is a father-and-son business dedicated to the conservation of rural lands in the Commonwealth of Virginia. As lifelong residents of Virginia, we share a deep-rooted passion for preserving the natural beauty, resources, and farming economy that define our community. Our commitment goes beyond business—it’s personal. We understand the value of protecting Virginia's agricultural heritage, not just for today but for the generations that follow.
At Farmland Protection Partners, we work closely with local landowners, communities, and conservation organizations to safeguard rural lands from development and environmental threats. Our mission is to promote sustainable land use and preserve the unique character of Virginia’s landscapes. By protecting these vital farmlands, we aim to maintain the balance supporting our region's beauty and agricultural legacy.
As a family-run business, we take pride in serving our community with integrity and dedication. We invite you to join us in our mission to protect Virginia’s rural lands, ensuring that our state's natural beauty and agricultural vitality endure for future generations.
At Farmland Protection Partners, LLC, we help preserve Virginia’s rural lands by facilitating the donation of development rights. This approach allows landowners to protect their farmland from being converted into neighborhoods or other developments, ensuring the land remains dedicated to agriculture and open space. By donating development rights, landowners can safeguard their property’s natural and agricultural value, contributing to the long-term conservation of Virginia’s unique landscapes and farming heritage.
We are dedicated to restoring streams and improving water quality through Virginia state programs that utilize nutrient credits to keep phosphates and runoff out of our waterways. By collaborating with landowners, we implement best management practices such as streambank stabilization, buffer planting, and livestock exclusion to reduce runoff and prevent harmful pollutants from entering the streams. These efforts help protect Virginia’s water resources, ensuring cleaner and healthier waterways for our communities and ecosystems.
At FPP, we champion reforestation and the conversion of open lands into thriving forests. Planting trees not only enhances the visual appeal of the landscape but also plays a critical role in improving air quality, sequestering carbon, and providing essential habitats for wildlife. Reforestation helps stabilize soil, reduce erosion, and mitigate the impacts of climate change, while also creating serene, natural spaces that enhance the beauty and ecological health of our communities. Reforestation contributes to a greener, more sustainable future for Virginia.
