On November 7th, the St. Albans Town Forest was awarded with the Town Forest Centennial Award as part of the Community Conservation Summit, held at the Vermont Technical College. "The Town Forest Centennial Award recognizes one community in each county statewide that has established model town forests. Communities were nominated by VT Department of Forests, Parks, and Recreation's County Foresters and members of the Town Forest Centennial Planning Committee, with the following criteria in mind: management and stewardship planning, conservation and protection, citizen advisory group engagement, and community use and engagement." As FCMTBC has been working closely with St. Albans Town Manager Nat Neider, other representatives from the town, County Forester Nancy Patch, and RiseVT on making improvements to the Town Forest, we were invited to join Nat in receiving the award.
