Our National Team

The national team works alongside local commons, farmers, and partners across the country to advance the shared mission of community held land stewardship.

Guided by the organization's strategic priorities and long-term vision, we support the network through relationship building, communications, resource development, technical assistance, and shared learning.

Together, the board and staff play distinct but complementary roles. The board provides governance and stewardship of the organization's mission, while staff focus on carrying forward the day-to-day work that supports local commons and the broader network.
