Tuning Up Our Middle "C" | Closing on a land-acquisition project wraps up an essential, often exciting, chapter, but it is far from the end of the story. What comes next is implementing the Preservation Trust’s commitment to the second (or middle) “C” — Caring for the land in perpetuity.
Recently our stewardship staff spent an education day with Marty Main, a seasoned ecological forester whose career has focused on helping small-woodland owners manage their forests.
