A Letter from Lily

Dear Friends,

Since joining Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT) this past August, I've had the good fortune to talk with our staff and board of directors, local ranchers and farmers, partners, and community members to learn about the incredible history of MALT and dig deeper into our shared aspirations.

Out of this learning and reflection, we've developed a strategic framework to guide MALT over the next few years — in a way that honors our past, digs deeper into our successful core work, and focuses on the pressing needs identified by our community.

I want to share these strategic pillars (opposing page) so you can be inspired by our vision and continue to partner with us in protecting our landscape and strengthening our community. Because, as you know, we cannot do this without you by our side.

Over the next year, we will further share with you how our work is reflected and strengthened through these strategic pillars, through stories on the ground, successes, and lessons learned.

Thank you again for being part of MALT and sharing our vision.

Sincerely,

Lily Verdone, Executive Director
