Need assistance in caring for your woodland? The 2008 Farm Bill expanded access to some conservation programs for forest landowners and managers. Local Soil and Water Conservation Districts are sponsoring meetings throughout Maine in March to provide information about programs such as the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program, Conservation Stewardship Program and Forest Stewardship; how they could benefit Maine's forest landowners; and eligibility requirements. One meeting is scheduled for Waldoboro on Thursday, March 26, 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. at the Knox-Lincoln Extension Service office at 377 Manktown Road. If you'd like to attend, please call 273-3005, ext. 3, a week in advance.
A list of all the meeting dates, locations, times and contact information is available at www.me.nrcs.usda.gov.
