Vermont Land Trust We are working with the Jericho Underhill Land Trust to conserve the Barber Farm. Do you know it? Jericho Settlers' Farm currently leases the land which supports their CSA operation. Take a look at this link to get involved.

www.vlt.org
The Barber Farm was the third property to be settled in Jericho in 1774. Over the following 240 years, the land has supplied food to generations of Jericho and area families.

Vermont Land Trust Did you see our “Staff Forestry Day” photos? VLT is donating 5 cords of firewood from that timber cut to a MRV organization that provides firewood to those in need. Many others have donated logs, which are staged at the conserved Kingsbury Farm in Waitsfield. H.S. students and VYCC groups have hand-split many cords ...and delivered them as a part of the Valley Community Fund.

A great day in the woods! VLT staff spent the day at an active timber harvest site (on conserved property), met the logger and talked about wood markets and tree utilization. We then moved down to the woods to talk about timber harvesting, silvicultural systems, apple tree release, invasive species, deer wintering areas, Acceptable Management Practices (AMPs), and more.
