Park Forestry Hardwood Forests in Vermont and New York
Ownership of over 15,000 acres of land and timber rights within Vermont and the Adirondack Park (NY). All land abuts or is within public recreation areas or forests.
Conservation and recreational easements are integral to our principals (Trust for Public Land, The VT Land Trust, NYS DEC and others). We manage our resources for the "long-term" with the objective of inter-generational ownership. The carbon and ecosystems markets are part of our long term planning.
Besides traditional Forest Legacy and stand-alone conservation easements, multiple parcels have been transitioned into the Green Mountain National Forest. Some of our ownership results from working with sellers or partners who wish to retain long-term recreational usage of the land. We practice responsible forestry principles, reflecting our long-term view towards ownership.
Conservation Projects and Outcomes
Our conservation projects could not exist without superb partners.
Vermont Projects include protecting 1,700 acres in Sharon (Vermont Land Trust), 108 acres placed into the Roxbury State Forest (Trust for Public Land), and 930 acres protected abutting Groton State Forest (Vermont Land Trust and the State of Vermont). Recreational partnerships include the Robinwood Club, a well known and long-standing family oriented recreational club. Partnering with Robinwood, we acquired 4,200 acres in the Adirondack Park protected by a DEC (New York) easement. For our projects which added land to the National Forests, please see the three articles about our conservation work with The Trust for Public Land adding significant acreage to the Green Mountain National Forest and protecting the Appalachian Trail.
