Hinesburg residents have long valued our farms, forests and open land. These attributes give our community a rural, small-town character and its beauty.

A Farm and Forest Conservation Task Force was established as the result of a town-wide effort led by the Vermont Council of Rural Development (VCRD) and embraced by hundreds of Hinesburg citizens and leaders. The purpose of this committee is to attempt to leverage the community's interest in maintaining the viability of farm and forest land in the Town by researching, developing and providing resources of value to landowners.

The Farm and Forest Conservation Task Force:
  • is a volunteer task force comprised of farmers, landowners and interested citizens
  • has an overall interest in helping owners maintain and increase land in Hinesburg in sustainable farm and forestry uses
  • will actively assist landowners to meet their goals as long as these goals help to keep land in farm and forestry uses
  • will work to achieve these goals in ways that are compatible with landowners' goals, first, and, second, to further the general goals of the town
