| Description: |
The Farmland Preservation Program (FPP) began in 1979 when the voters of King County approved an initiative authorizing the County to preserve rapidly diminishing farmland by purchasing the right to develop it.
To-date, development rights have been purchased on approximately 13,000 acres of farmland, thereby premantly preserving them for agriculture.
