Maui Land Preservation Workshop

Maui Land Preservation Workshop Scheduled for March 16.

You are cordially invited to a free workshop on available land preservation tools, including information on conservation easements and related programs for communities and landowners on Maui.

Over the past several years, interest has grown in permanent protection of agricultural and open space lands in Hawaii. Public funding sources at the federal, state and county level, along with various tax incentives, make this a great time to explore how conservation easements can help communities and landowners achieve their land preservation and sustainability goals.

Join experts from the Hawaiian Islands Land Trust, Trust for Public Land, Natural Resources Conservation Service, Department of Land and Natural Resources, Hawaii Legacy Lands Fund, and More!

Wednesday March 16, 2011

  • Local Land Trusts
  • What Makes Land Worth Saving
