A million acres of healthy soil by 2030

About Us

Fair Farms is building a movement of Marylanders of all stripes, working together for a new food system — one that is fair to farmers, invests in homegrown healthy foods, and restores our waterways instead of polluting them. Learn more!

These are some of the priority issues Fair Farms is working on:

Healthy Soils

Soil is the very foundation of life on farms. More than just dirt – it is a complex mixture of minerals, organic material and nutrients. Fertile, healthy soil is vital to grow the wholesome farm foods we depend on. Soil is also incredibly important to climate change – healthy soils capture carbon and prevent it from reaching the atmosphere.

Cleaner Water

Healthy, biodiverse agricultural systems are essential to maintaining the health of our local waterways. We all unpolluted waterways for clean drinking water sources and to support our local economies and enjoyment of the outdoors.

Farmer Support

Lifting up the local farmers and food producers who are pioneers in sustainability is a fundamental pillar of our work. These farmers are protecting our waterways from runoff and erosion, providing for the well-being of farm animals, raising food without harmful chemicals, and making wholesome food available for us to eat at local farmers’ markets.

Million Acre Challenge

The Million Acre Challenge helps Maryland farmers build soil health, increase farm profitability, and improve water quality — while making farms resilient and active in the face of climate change. This farmer-focused collaborative uses soil health science, economics, education, and incentives to achieve its mission.
