Managing rural property is often more complex than most landowners understand. Opportunities and limitations specific to their property vary with nuances of property features and vulnerabilities to threats, such as deteriorating forest health and wildfire. Conditions on adjoining properties, weather/wind/flood/landslide risks – even provisions for emergency access – can impact management options and practices. A certified natural resource management professional can assist landowners with assessing and understand invaluable insights critical to long-term planning and stewardship.
Relying on decades of natural resource planning and management experience, I work directly with the landowner to coach awareness and understanding their property. By integrating principles of landscape ecology and conservation, together with the landowner 'vision' for their property, we can develop practical long-term management plans that support resilience, sustainability, and 'connections' with the land.
