Forty-two years ago, two visionary women, Ellen Straus and Phyllis Faber—a rancher and a botanist—brought together a groundbreaking coalition of local ranchers and conservationists to protect family farms from mounting development pressure. As a result, the Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT) was born—the first land trust in the nation focused specifically on protecting farmland.
Today, we have proudly protected more than 54,000 acres in Marin County and have invested more than $1.2 million in projects that improve soil health, protect water quality, and increase grassland vigor. This protected land forms a cornerstone in our agricultural community and our local economy.
