AgFirst teams up with Center for Heirs’ Property Preservation to support underserved landowners

AgFirst has awarded $30,000 to a South Carolina non-profit program that will help historically underserved landowners.

The Center for Heirs’ Property Preservation will use the funds to support their South Carolina Coastal Region Beginning Farmers Development Project through 2023. This program provides forestry support, legal resources, land management plans and a wide array of other services to beginning and disadvantaged farmers. 

AgFirst previously sponsored three events per year for the center, whose mission is to help heirs: 

• Prevent land loss when the owner passes without a will.
• Resolve land title issues.
• Build generational wealth by managing their forestland for maximum income. 

AgFirst is committed to staying involved through employee participation in center events.
