The new Voluntary Public Access Program (VPA) will pay landowners in 28 towns in northwest Massachusetts to allow public access on their land for wildlife viewing, hiking, hunting, and fishing.
At this informational workshop, participants will get a detailed overview of the VPA program, as well as information on how the program works and how to get involved. Time will be left for one-on-one consultations at the end.
Interested landowners are encouraged to bring property maps, and/or a forest management plan.
RSVP is requested but not required. Light refreshments will be served. This event is free and open to all.
To learn more or to RSVP, email Melissa Patterson, mpatterson@franklinlandtrust.org, or call (413) 625-9151
The VPA program is being sponsored by Franklin Land Trust, Berkshire Natural Resources Council and the Massachusetts Forest Alliance, with funding from the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
