Over the past year, the Green Mountain Conservancy has settled into the maintenance and conservation of our first conserved land parcels, the Deer Run Nature Preserve. Activities have included invasive species removal, trail building and boundary maintenance.
We are focusing our attention on other ways to expand our conservation efforts. GMC has had offers and has identified prospective properties to purchase and conserve. Our process includes researching the lands, meeting with owners, acquiring appraisals, making applications to potential funders and raising the needed funds to complete the purchase. This process includes outreach to the community to assure their assistance and support.
We are in conversation with other organizations who have similar missions, discussing ways that we can collaborate to more effectively preserve even more of the remaining Southern Vermont forests. This is critical work in these times of climate change and on-going threats to biodiversity.
The Green Mountain Conservancy has a continual need to raise funds for the Land Conservation Fund to :
1. be able to respond quickly to protect lands that are in danger of being compromised; and,
2. to provide on-going protection to the lands in our care.
Thank you for your interest in our projects and your continued support.
