For more than 35 years, Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT) has worked with local families to save their farms and ranches. MALT is a member-supported non-profit organization that permanently protects working farms in Marin County by purchasing agricultural conservation easements on farmland.

MALT promotes public awareness of farming- and food-related issues and advocates for policies that support agriculture. We host events welcoming the public to Marin’s family-owned farms and ranches. MALT events offer unique opportunities to explore the landscape, learn about Marin’s natural and cultural history, savor and share local food, and get to know the farmers who make it possible.
