SHC is offering a unique alternative model to land ownership that provides the right person(s) with farmland access, affordability, security, and investment with the following advantages:

  • The arrangement offers affordability to the farmer by eliminating substantial down-payment requirements and debt typically associated with purchasing a farm.
  • The long-term lease secures tenure for the farmer and fosters sound and lasting stewardship of the farmed property.
  • A farm equity fund assists the farmer in building equity through means other than land ownership.
