Put your newly learned monitoring skills to the test! Workshop participants will practice monitoring basics taught during the Conservation Easement Monitoring Webinar. You’ll explore a conservation easement and learn how the best practices for monitoring actually work in the field. Perfect for conservation commissioners or land trust volunteers.
Volunteers will be asked to review property materials (survey, easement deed) ahead of time and come prepared to spend the afternoon outside. Details about the meeting location will be provided after registration.
Registration is only open to people who attend or watch the recording of the the Conservation Easement Monitoring Webinar on Wednesday, June 4 | 4:00 – 6:00 pm.
This workshop will be outside with no facilities. The outside time will include time in the woods, off trail, and on uneven terrain.
