Societal values vary from property to property. Land Trusts typically focus on conservation, but not all land can be conserved. Is there room on our landscape and in our work for housing and/or community solar arrays? This workshop will address how Land Trusts can recognize opportunities for housing and solar, find partners, and take action where appropriate.
The workshop will be held in-person at Southeast Land Trust's Mathey Center (247 North River Road, Epping, NH) with an option to join virtually. NHLTC events are free for current dues-paying NHLTC “Members or Partners”. Non “Members or Partners” pay $20 (or join as a member/partner for free registration). To pay, after registering for an event, please mail a check (made out to NHLTC) to: NHLTC, Solar & Housing Workshop, 54 Portsmouth Street, Concord, NH 03301
