The 2025 Horse Farms Forever Conservation Summit is made possible by an incredible network of partners who share a deep commitment to preserving the character and culture of Marion County. Each year, these individuals and organizations step forward not only to support an event—but to stand behind a mission: protecting our open spaces, beautiful places, and the horse farms that make this region truly one-of-a-kind.

We are deeply grateful to our Gold Level Sponsors for their generous support and unwavering dedication to farmland preservation. Their investment helps ensure that vital conversations about conservation, growth, and community continue to take place right here in the Horse Capital of the World®.

 

A Heartfelt Thank You

Preserve – we guide and encourage landowners who wish to conserve their land.
Plan – we are working with the County on changes to the Comprehensive Plan that will make conservation easy and financially advantageous for farm owners.
