North Florida Land Trust (NFLT) and its partners received more than $15 million from the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) through its Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP) to support the Corridor to Coast (C2C) initiative. 

Southeast AgNet’s Randall Weiseman talked with Ramesh Buch, NFLT Director of Conservation Acquisitions, and Ben Williams, a landowner with whom NFLT has a close working relationship, about their efforts on these conservation lands that includes privately owned working lands and forests.
