Farmland Preservation Listening Sessions

Sauk County is launching a planning process for the update of the Sauk County Farmland Preservation Plan which outlines strategies and policies which designate how the County participates in the Farmland Preservation Program. The Wisconsin Farmland Preservation Program (FPP) is designed to help local governments and landowners preserve agricultural land, minimize conflicting land uses, and promote soil and water conservation. 

The County will be hosting listening sessions to collect input that will be utilized in the preparation of the Sauk County Farmland Preservation Plan. Attendees will have the opportunity to comment on topics related to the future of agriculture in Sauk County including farm succession, the Farmland Preservation Program, rural development, and programs and services needed to support and protect productive and profitable farms and communities. A survey has been developed to gather comments for those unable to attend the listening sessions and can be accessed by clicking on the web link below.
