Since 1827, six generations of the Presby family farmed this property before a generational transfer and the need to divide the estate equitably put the farm at risk. The ultimate solution was complicated but elegant: Sale of conservation easements to Five Rivers Conservation Trust and historic preservation easements to NH Preservation Alliance permanently protected the property while providing resources for the heirs to share. Farm title passed to Equity Trust, a non-profit land trust charged with ensuring active farming continues on the land, and Jane Presby was granted the right to run her farm business for life.”
