Irasburg Town Hall 118 Park Ave Irasburg VT
Description: The Orleans County Natural Resources Conservation District will be hosting a free lunch and free dinner and community feedback forum on Monday, February 10th at the Irasburg Town Hall. We are offering two meetings at different times, with the same agenda to cater to a range of schedules and time constraints. We will provide brief presentations on the status of water quality, forest and farming in Orleans County. We are offering free child care and Orleans COunty Farm produced door prizes. The purpose of this meeting will be to solicit input from area agricultural producers, forest landowners, loggers, consultants, and all conservation- minded residents about the future of our working lands by identifying local priorities for Federal funding. These public meetings in combination with responses to our survey will result in a regionally focused Conservation Action Plan and directly inform the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Local Working Group Process for Orleans County. Vermont is leading the nation in this unique process, which allows communities to direct how Federal resources are allocated on the ground and what concerns those resources should address. Join us for an incredible opportunity to inform how Federal funds will address local concerns to create a more sustainable and vibrant community through healthy farms, forests, and waterways. Please Take the Conservation Survey. https://forms.gle/QXAe8Kvy89d96Jrm7
