A network of neighbors inspiring woodland and wildlife stewardship

Vermont Coverts is a peer-to-peer community of landowners, professionals and others learning from and supporting each other to enhance wildlife habitats through sound forest management.

We offer three-day trainings that include classroom and field studies, as well as numerous forest stewardship workshops on diverse topics. We also facilitate personal contacts among individual landowners, experts, public agencies and private organizations in the conservation arena.

To learn more about VT Coverts connecting people to the land, wildlife and each other watch the Coverts movie.
