Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and the Southern and Eastern RI Conservation Districts plan two walks for woodland owners to show how to have healthy woods. NRCS and our conservation districts offer several outreach events, grant opportunities, and other resources for land owners in Rhode Island each year.
See the NRCS news release (also attached here: NRCS-Forestry):
"Land improvement leads to healthy, beautiful and sustainable woods: Learn how to protect your woods from natural threats, improve the long-term beauty and value of your woods, encourage wildlife and improve the recreational uses of your land.
"Properties with 10 acres or more of forestland may be eligible for reduced taxes through Rhode Island’s Farm, Forest and Open Space Act."
Go on one of these walks and learn more!
