MEADOWLARK FUND II
Sustainable Farming.
Impact Focused.
Strategic Investments.
We believe the most compelling investment opportunity in American agriculture is also its most urgent environmental imperative — transitioning conventional farmland to Certified Organic and Regenerative.
OUR PURPOSE
"Organic farming doesn't just produce pesticide free food — it rebuilds soil, sequesters carbon, improves biodiversity, and sustains rural communities. We invest in that transformation."
THE INVESTMENT CASE
A Higher-Better Use: Impact and Returns Are Not a Trade-Off
Organic farmland commands meaningful premiums over conventional land — and those premiums are growing as demand for certified organic food continues to outpace supply. Meadowlark Fund II captures this structural opportunity while delivering measurable environmental and social outcomes.
01
Strategic Acquisition
We focus on row crop farmland across most of the Midwest, where water access, crop diversity, and undervalued land create ideal conditions for organic conversion at scale.
02
Value Creation Through Conversion
The organic transition unlocks land value and crop price premiums.
03
Disciplined Portfolio Management
With $232M+ invested across 30,000+ acres and 19 operating partners, Meadowlark Fund II builds on a proven track record of acquisitions, conversions, and high-value portfolio.

WHY ORGANIC MATTERS
The Environmental Case for Organic Conversion
Conventional farming accounts for roughly 10% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, depletes topsoil at 10x its natural regeneration rate, and introduces billions of pounds of synthetic chemicals into our waterways annually. Organic conversion reverses each of these trends — measurably, verifiably, and permanently.
Soil Carbon Sequestration
Organic practices rebuild soil organic matter, locking carbon below ground and improving long-term fertility.
Water Quality & Efficiency
Organic practices rebuild soil organic matter, locking carbon below ground and improving long-term fertility.
Biodiversity & Ecosystem Health
Organic practices rebuild soil organic matter, locking carbon below ground and improving long-term fertility.
THE ORGANIC DIFFERE
Healthy soil is the foundation of everything — food quality, water purity, climate resilience, and long-term land value.
PEOPLE & COMMUNITY
Supporting the Farmers Behind the Food
Behind every acre of organic farmland is a farming family making a long-term commitment to better practices. We provide the capital, transition support, and market access that makes that commitment viable — and we measure our social impact as rigorously as our financial returns.
