Andy and Betsy Boone and their children moved onto SILT's Luzum Heritage Farm in 2018. They are making a new life with their pigs, sheep and chickens. Their children are growing up in a healthy, clean, natural world. It's a way for natural food consumers to be sure they'll always have access to quality food. Support SILT today and become a part of new lives on new farms.
SILT is bringing equity, justice and diversity to Iowa's landscape. SILT President Stuart Valentine, a financial adviser from Fairfield, IA, explains how. SILT Makes Sense. Donate today because it's the only way. "[SILT] lowers that barrier of entry for that new regenerative farmer to get on the land. We want to see Iowa become a model of regenerative agriculture rather than what it is today which you might think of as extractive agriculture."
In this interview with SILT Farm Specialist Joe Klingelhutz he explains how protecting land can take it from a commodity to a common good.
