OAT is an agricultural land trust that works collaboratively around the state to safeguard Oregon’s farm and ranch lands and the rural communities that depend upon them. We permanently protect agricultural land, help it stay in production, educate our community, and help advocate for farmland preservation. OAT preserves ag land mainly through donation and purchase of working land easements — voluntary agreements between a land trust and a landowner to remove development rights that interfere with farming and ranching. We also educate farmers, ranchers, attorneys, and the public about why and how to preserve farmland and plan for succession. We work with our peers to increase ag land preservation statewide. And we collaborate on advocacy.
