Conservation Fund buys 23,000 acres of forestland in New York, Vermont, Massachusetts

According to a National Wild Turkey Federation news release, the legislation includes many important measures for private forest conservation that were recommended by the Forests in the Farm Bill coalition, which the NWTF helps to lead. Inclusion of these measures will ensure that private forests are managed to provide quality wildlife habitat, clean water and reduced risk of forest fire, the NWTF said.

Known as Cowee Forest, the acquired lands provide critical connections to existing conserved areas and recreational resources, including access to the Taconic Crest Trail and the Rensselaer Plateau, as well as protection for important wildlife habitat within a short drive from Albany, N.Y., and Bennington, Vt.
