LandConnect: Powered by GRŌ
    Now expanding nationwide · 3-5 year engagements

    Turn underutilized municipal land into long-term revenue, jobs, and resilience.

    LandConnect partners with mid-sized cities across the U.S. — beginning with our Missouri pilot cohort — to convert vacant and underutilized public land into tax revenue, workforce pipelines, agritourism, specialty-crop production, and carbon revenue, anchored by a 3-5 year consulting engagement and full platform deployment.

    Six pillars of revenue

    Each engagement is tailored to your municipality's goals and citizens' needs.

    Tax revenue uplift

    Convert vacant parcels into revenue-generating land uses with measurable 5-yr tax recovery.

    Workforce & entrepreneurship

    Stand up partner-led training programs in emerging ag, agritech, and ag-adjacent industries.

    Specialty-crop & food forests

    Activate land for specialty crops, cooperatives, community farms, and resident food access.

    Grants & capital deployment

    Match NRCS, EPA, USDA RBDG, and foundation capital to your priority pillars.

    Agritourism programming

    Build agritourism rings using nearby farms, trails, and conservation assets.

    Carbon & ecosystem revenue

    Issue verified carbon and ecosystem-service bundles via the Municipal Carbon Guide.

    Is your city a fit?

    We work best with mid-sized cities (15k-150k population, U.S. and select international) that meet several of these criteria:

    Land bank or other public-land system beyond parks
    Limited ag / ag-adjacent / agritourism activity today
    Elevated unemployment or workforce-development demand
    High vacant-storefront rate downtown
    Stated interest in new tax-revenue sources
    Growing youth-in-ag programming
    Sustainability officer or equivalent on staff
    Open to land conservation & climate programs
