Yolo Land Trust protects local farmland and keeps farms thriving in Yolo County. Once farmland is paved over, it doesn’t come back. Protecting it today means preserving local food, natural resources, and a strong agricultural future. Give by May 7 for Big Day of Giving to help keep farms in farming for future generations. Your gift is an investment in the future of this land and community.

Winters

Our Winters easements are on the southwestern border of Yolo County just to the west of Winters, and also between Winters and Davis. The 5 farms that have been permanently preserved as agriculture grow walnuts, prunes, olives and a variety of row crops. As the small town of Winters grows in popularity, preserving working farms and ranches will ensure the rural way of life here remains for generations.

Land Owners

  • T.R. and Dorothy Martin

    Growing up working on farms, both T.R. and Dorothy developed a love for the land. T.R. said that his goal when he was younger was to own just 10 acres. Today, he and Dorothy own hundreds. “It took a lifetime to get to where we are today,” Tony says “We feel so blessed- what are the odds of someone starting with nothing?” In order to protect their life’s work, in 2012, the Martins approached the Yolo Land Trust with a simple request. They wanted to protect their farm from any future development.
