Lots of Interesting LandCAN projects

The Land Conservation Assistance Network is an amazing organization, headquartered in Maine, but doing projects all over the country.

Here’s the first paragraph in their recent annual report

Over the past 18 years, thousands of individuals and businesses have visited our websites to find around 42,000 resources that help them make the best decisions about how to manage their land. In 2018, we continued to see a significant growth in the number of people we’ve been able to help. It’s heartwarming to know that our small organization with a staff of five in Falmouth, Maine makes this possible. We are a hidden gem in the beautiful State of Maine.

I encourage you to read their report, which you can do here:

About George Smith
