Portland, Oregon, United States Maine Farmland Trust Full time

The board of directors of Maine Farmland Trust (MFT) seeks a
passionate advocate and inspiring leader to serve as president and
CEO. Maine Farmland Trust protects farmland, supports farmers, and
advances the future of farming in Maine. The overarching goal of
this respected nonprofit is to protect Maine farmland and
revitalize Maine's rural landscape by keeping agricultural lands
working and helping farmers and communities thrive.

Organizational Overview

Founded in 1999, Maine Farmland Trust is rooted in the belief
that the future of farming depends on farmland and that the future
of Maine communities depends on thriving farms. The organization's
evolving programming is designed to meet the complex and changing
needs of the state's farm community, with a consistent focus
on:

Protecting Maine's finite farmland from development and
creating more affordable access to land for all farmers—through
agricultural easements and other tools—is key to ensuring that
Maine has the farmland and farmers needed to sustain our region
long-term.
Thriving farm businesses feed Maine's local communities and
economy and keep farmland in farming. MFT's Farm Network programs
offer holistic support to farmers at every stage of the farming
journey.
Through grassroots organizing and advocacy, policy change,
research, storytelling, and collaboration with local farmers, MFT
is helping create an environment that will support thriving,
interconnected Maine farms for generations to come.

In recent years, MFT has firmly centered farmers' voices and
reorganized structurally to promote communication, collaboration,
and holistic service to farmers; developed the strength of its
staff leadership team, made critical organizational investments,
deepened its policy and research program in recognition of the
magnitude and complexity of the challenges at hand; and been a
national leader in responding to the crisis of PFAS chemical
contamination on farms.
MFT supports a growing network of more than 500 farms through
our programs, including permanent protection on more than 370
farms, keeping nearly 68,000 acres of farmland in agriculture. This
Farm Network is representative of Maine's diverse agricultural
community, spanning all 16 counties and various scales and types of
farming. MFT's membership currently exceeds 2,200, and MFT's staff
work across the state, with offices in Belfast and
Portland.
In the face of increasing development, environmental risks,
market pressures, and a wave of farmers nearing retirement age,
MFT's work to protect farmland and support farmers is more
important than ever. With an annual budget of more than $10
million, the organization has made steady progress toward its goals
with the support of a growing community of Mainers dedicated to
this vital work.
More information about MFT's leadership, programs, and specific
impact can be found at the website:

Role and Responsibilities
