FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION:	OUR PROGRAMS CENTER COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, AND PROMOTE JUST AND RESILIENT ECONOMIES AND NATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATION. WE OFFER FAIR FINANCING, BUSINESS EDUCATION, AND SUPPORT FOR OWNING OR MANAGING AGRICULTURAL LAND. CALIFORNIA FARMLINK (FARMLINK), A CALIFORNIA NONPROFIT PUBLIC BENEFIT CORPORATION, WAS FORMED IN 1999. ITS MISSION IS TO INVEST IN THE PROSPERITY OF FARMERS, RANCHERS AND FISHERS THROUGH EDUCATION, LOANS, AND ACCESS TO LAND. FARMLINK HELPS THE BUSINESSES IT SERVES TO BUILD STRONG BUSINESS SKILLS, ACCESS FAIR FINANCING, AND ESTABLISH SECURE LAND TENURE. FARMLINK WORKS ACROSS THE STATE, WITH PARTICULAR FOCUS ON THE CENTRAL COAST AND IN THE SACRAMENTO AND SAN JOAQUIN VALLEYS, AND THE NORTH BAY REGION OF CALIFORNIA. TO HELP FARMERS, RANCHERS AND FISHERS ACCESS LAND AND CAPITAL, GROW THEIR BUSINESSES, AND CREATE JOBS, FARMLINK ORGANIZES ITS WORK INTO TWO PROGRAM AREAS: THE FARM AND RANCH PROSPERITY LOAN PROGRAM, AND THE LAND ACCESS AND FARM BUSINESS EDUCATION PROGRAM. SEE BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A:	FARM AND RANCH PROSPERITY LOAN PROGRAM - PROVIDES FLEXIBLY STRUCTURED FINANCING TO UNDERSERVED, LOW INCOME, IMMIGRANT AND BEGINNING FARMERS, RANCHERS AND FISHERS ACROSS CALIFORNIA FOR OPERATING, EQUIPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE LOANS. FARMLINK'S LOAN PROGRAM SERVES BORROWERS WHO WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME SECURING FINANCING DUE TO LIMITED HISTORY AS ENTREPRENEURS, LIMITED TRADITIONAL COLLATERAL, LITTLE OR NO CREDIT HISTORY, SMALL LOAN SIZE, LANGUAGE BARRIERS, OR NON-TRADITIONAL MARKETING AND BUSINESS MODELS. FARMLINK ALSO DIRECTS FARMERS TO OTHER APPROPRIATE SOURCES OF FINANCING SUITED TO THE SCALE AND TYPE OF THE BUSINESS. IN 2022 FARMLINK DEPLOYED 50 LOANS WITH AVERAGE LOAN SIZE OF $113,463, IN 2021 FARMLINK DEPLOYED 126 LOANS, WITH AN AVERAGE LOAN SIZE OF $63,053, INCLUDING PPP LOANS. FARMLINK FOCUSES ON GENERATING PATHWAYS TO OWNERSHIP, HELPING FARMERS AND RANCHERS AND FISHERS PLAN FOR LOWER-INTEREST LAND LOANS AND OTHER MEANS TO ESTABLISH SECURE LONG-TERM LAND TENURE. WITH SECURE LAND TENURE, FARMERS CAN BUILD FINANCIAL EQUITY BY INVESTING IN IMPROVEMENTS TO SOIL HEALTH, FARM INFRASTRUCTURE AND HOUSING. THE LOAN PROGRAM DATES BACK TO 2005 WHEN FARMLINK BEGAN PARTNERING WITH LENDERS TO DEVELOP A FARM LOAN FUND TO PROVIDE FINANCING TO UNDERSERVED GROWERS. FARMLINK IDENTIFIED A LACK OF ACCESS TO FINANCING AS ONE OF THE TOP OBSTACLES FACED BY SMALL-SCALE AND LOW-INCOME FARMERS. FOR FIVE YEARS, FARMLINK OPERATED THE LOAN PROGRAM IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER LENDING INSTITUTIONS: FARMLINK RAISED AND LOANED FUNDS TO THE LENDING INSTITUTIONS WHO ACTED AS THE LENDER OF RECORD TO MAKE LOANS TO SMALL FARMERS. FARMLINK OBTAINED ITS OWN LENDING LICENSE FROM THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF CORPORATIONS AT THE END OF 2010, SECURED GUARANTEED LENDER STATUS FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE (USDA) FARM SERVICE AGENCY (FSA) IN 2011 AND HAS BEEN MAKING DIRECT LOANS SINCE THE FALL OF 2011. IN 2013, FARMLINK RECEIVED CERTIFICATION FROM THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY AS A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FINANCIAL INSTITUTION (CDFI). A CDFI IS A SPECIALIZED FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT WORKS IN MARKETS THAT ARE UNDERSERVED BY TRADITIONAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS. WITH THIS CERTIFICATION, FARMLINK IS ELIGIBLE TO ACCESS FINANCIAL AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AWARDS FROM THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TREASURY'S CDFI FUND. IN 2021, FARMLINK WAS APPROVED BY THE CALIFORNIA OCEAN PROTECTION COUNCIL TO MANAGE THE "CALIFORNIA FISHERIES FUND." ACQUIRED FROM COMMUNITY VISION CAPITAL & CONSULTING AT NO COST, THE PORTFOLIO CONSISTED OF 15 SMALL BUSINESS LOANS FOR A TOTAL OF $1,582,034. FARMLINK IS PRIORITIZING LOANS TO BEGINNING, LOW-INCOME AND DISADVANTAGED SMALL-SCALE FISHERS. FISHERS FROM THE COASTAL COMMUNITIES ON THE MONTEREY BAY AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PORTS ARE DIVERSE IN ETHNICITY (LATINO, SICILIAN, VIETNAMESE), AND MANY COME FROM MULTI-GENERATIONAL FISHING FAMILIES. SIMILAR TO SMALL-SCALE AGRICULTURE, THE AVERAGE AGE OF FISHERS IS 55-60, THERE ARE CONSIDERABLE BARRIERS TO STARTING A BUSINESS, A COMPLEX REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT, AND A CHALLENGE TO RETAIN THESE BUSINESSES FOR THE NEXT GENERATION. IN 2022, FARMLINK DEPLOYED $966,400 THROUGH 8 LOANS TO SMALL SCALE FISHERS.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B:	LAND ACCESS AND FARM BUSINESS EDUCATION PROGRAMS - LINKS LANDSEEKERS WITH LANDHOLDERS AND PROVIDES EDUCATION AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE IN BUSINESS SKILLS, INCLUDING FINANCIAL AND LEGAL ACUMEN AND SUCCESSION PLANNING. FARMLINK'S LAND ACCESS AND FARM BUSINESS EDUCATION PROGRAMS ALSO BRING INCREASED FOCUS TO THE NEEDS OF VARIOUS STAKEHOLDER GROUPS THROUGH TWO PROGRAM AREAS: "EQUITY AND CONSERVATION ON WORKING LANDS (ECWL), AND "RESILIENCE AND WEALTH BUILDING." THESE TWO PROGRAMS EMPLOY FARMLINK'S CORE TOOLS IN LENDING, LAND ACCESS, BUSINESS EDUCATION AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO PROVIDE OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH AND SUCCESS AMONG SMALL-SCALE AND PEOPLE-OF-COLOR-OWNED FARM AND FISHING BUSINESSES. IN 2022, FARMLINK STAFF PROVIDED DIRECT, INDIVIDUALIZED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO 284 GROWERS AND LANDHOLDERS. PROGRAM DETAILS AND OUTCOMES INCLUDE: EQUITY AND CONSERVATION ON WORKING LANDS: LAND ACCESS: FARMLINK INCREASES OPPORTUNITIES FOR CALIFORNIA FARMERS TO ACQUIRE AFFORDABLE, SECURE, LONG-TERM ACCESS TO FARMLAND, WITH AN EMPHASIS ON BEGINNING FARMERS, WOMEN FARMERS, AND FARMERS OF COLOR. THIS PROGRAM LINKS LANDSEEKERS WITH LANDHOLDERS, MAINTAINS A BILINGUAL DATABASE OF LAND AVAILABLE FOR LEASE OR SALE, CONNECTS FARMERS AND LANDHOLDERS, FACILITATES THE DEVELOPMENT AND NEGOTIATION OF STRONG AND EQUITABLE LEASE AGREEMENTS, AND SUPPORTS FARMERS SEEKING FINANCING FOR LAND PURCHASES. SINCE 2011, FARMLINK STAFF HAS DEVELOPED 506 SUCCESSFUL LEASES OR PURCHASES TAILORED TO THE NEEDS OF LANDHOLDERS AND GROWERS. CONSERVATION OF FARMLAND: FARMLINK FOCUSES ITS MODEL AS AN AGRICULTURAL CDFI TO SUPPORT LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS: ESTABLISHING SECURE LAND TENURE, FARM SUCCESSION PLANNING TO MAINTAIN FARM BUSINESSES, AND CREATING CONSERVATION INITIATIVES TO PROTECT AND IMPROVE NATURAL RESOURCES, SOIL HEALTH, WATER QUALITY AND BIODIVERSITY. IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF THE WORK INCLUDE DEEPENING PARTNERSHIPS WITH LAND TRUSTS AND CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS, AND MAKING LOANS DESIGNED TO SUPPORT REGENERATIVE FARMING PRACTICES. DURING 2022, FARMLINK SUPPORTED 20 FARM BUSINESSES IN PURCHASING LAND OR TRANSITIONING THEIR FARM BUSINESS TO NEW OWNERS/OPERATORS. OF THE $1.5 MILLION FARMLINK DEPLOYED IN LAND LOANS TO THESE BUSINESSES, 75% SUPPORTED LAND LOANS FOR FARMERS WITH LOW INCOMES OR FARMERS OF COLOR. FARMLINK APPLIES PROVEN STRATEGIES TO HELP LANDHOLDERS WORK WITH BEGINNING AND SMALL-SCALE FARMERS, PROMOTE A NEW PUBLICATION TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF REGENERATIVE GRAZING LEASES, AND INVITE MORE LANDHOLDERS TO BE PART OF ECWL. SUCCESSION: FARMLINK'S SUCCESSION PROGRAM, "THE REGENERATOR: A YEAR OF FARM SUCCESSION PLANNING," IS A 12-MONTH COURSE THAT WORKS WITH SMALL COHORTS OF FARM FAMILIES AND THEIR SUCCESSORS TO GENERATE PLANS THAT SUPPORT TRANSITION TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF FARMERS. PARTICIPANTS CONVENE MONTHLY TO LEARN FROM PROFESSIONALS, COMPARE NOTES WITH THEIR PEERS, AND WORK STEP-BY-STEP TO PLAN FOR THEIR FINANCIAL AND FAMILY WELL-BEING, AND THE HEALTH AND CONTINUITY OF THEIR WORKING FARMS AND RANCHES. RESILIENCE AND WEALTH BUILDING: FARMLINK'S EDUCATION PROGRAMS ASSIST FARMERS, RANCHERS AND FISHERS IN UNDERSTANDING THE LEGAL AND FINANCIAL STRUCTURE OF THEIR BUSINESSES AND HELP THEM ESTABLISH PRACTICES THAT WILL ENSURE THE FARM, RANCH OR FISHING BUSINESS IS RESILIENT TO FINANCIAL AND LEGAL RISKS, AND ABLE TO REMAIN VIABLE OVER THE LONG-TERM. PARTICIPATION IN EDUCATION PROGRAMS MAY HELP A CLIENT TO BECOME READY TO APPLY FOR A LOAN, AND MAY RESULT IN A CLIENT QUALIFYING FOR REDUCED INTEREST LOANS. THROUGH THE FARM RECOVERY AND RESILIENCE FUND, LAUNCHED IN 2021, FARMLINK HAS DEPLOYED $1.14 MILLION IN MULTI-YEAR TERM "DEVELOPMENTAL" CAPITAL THROUGH 26 LOANS, 90% TO FARMERS OF COLOR. THE SPANISH-LANGUAGE PROGRAM INCLUDES COHORT-BASED, IN-PERSON LEARNING AND ONE-ON-ONE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO ASSIST FARMERS, RANCHERS AND FISHERS WITH LIMITED FORMAL EDUCATION OR ENGLISH-LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY. THE GOAL IS TO BUILD FINANCIAL STABILITY, INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO RECOVER FROM SHORT-TERM SETBACKS, THE ABILITY TO SAVE FOR RETIREMENT AND THE ABILITY TO PASS WEALTH TO FUTURE GENERATIONS. THE ENGLISH-LANGUAGE PROGRAM IS VIRTUAL AND PROVIDES COHORT-BASED COMPREHENSIVE BEGINNING AND INTERMEDIATE FARM, RANCH AND FISHING BUSINESS TRAINING IN A GROUP SETTING FOLLOWED BY ONE ON ONE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE. DURING 2022, A TOTAL OF 38 GROWERS COMPLETED THE PARALLEL, 10-WEEK ENGLISH- AND SPANISH-LANGUAGE CURRICULA, WITH FOLLOW-ON TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ON TOPICS INCLUDING BOOKKEEPING AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT. BOTH THE ENGLISH AND SPANISH LANGUAGE PROGRAMS USE A COMPREHENSIVE SELF-ASSESSMENT TOOL (THE FARMLINK BUSINESS RESILIENCE SELF-ASSESSMENT) TO HELP PARTICIPANTS SET LEARNING GOALS AND TO ASSIST IN LONG-TERM EVALUATION OF HOW EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING SHAPES FUTURE BUSINESS SUCCESS. FARMLINK ENGAGES CONSULTANTS WITH EXPERTISE IN ADULT PEDAGOGY, LEADERSHIP FROM AGRICULTURAL BUSINESS ADVISORS FROM THE COMMUNITIES FARMLINK SERVES, AS WELL AS PROGRAM ALUMNI SERVING AS PEER-BASED GUEST INSTRUCTORS, TO DESIGN AND DELIVER PROGRAMMING THAT IS RESPONSIVE TO HOW A COHORT OF PARTICIPANTS LEARN NEW SKILLS AND BEHAVIORS.
