The Northwest Arkansas Land Trust (“NALT”) is holding a Conservation Easement Workshop for War Eagle Landowners. The Workshop will be held at Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area Visitor Center.
The date of the Workshop is December 13th from 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM.
A catered breakfast is included.
NALT states that the Workshop:
… will introduce the concept of conservation easements to landowners in the War Eagle watershed, with an emphasis on the flexibility and long-term benefits of these voluntary agreements.
The organization describes conservation easements as “powerful tools that allow landowners to permanently protect the conservation values of their land such as water quality, wildlife habitat, working lands, or scenic views- while retaining full ownership and use of the property within the terms of the agreement.”
The Workshop will provide attendees with knowledge regarding:
- How easements can be tailored to fit the unique characteristics of their land and personal goals (whether those include ongoing agricultural use, forestry, or natural habitat restoration).
- How easements can safeguard a landowner’s investments in stewardship and restoration in perpetuity, ensuring that their legacy and conservation values are honored for generations to come.
The overall stated goal is to provide attendees a clear understanding of the practical and legal considerations of easements.
