Episode description

In September we interviewed the director of the Sycamore Land Trust, John Lawrence, about the idea of a land trust -- a nonprofit that preserves land from development and maintains landscape in its natural state. It also runs an environmental program that connects people to that nature. 

But somebody has to manage those 144 properties, their more than 11,500 acres. That's another story, for which we turn to Sycamore's Lead Stewardship Director, Chris Fox. He talks about how he and his team deal with boundary issues, monitors unauthorized tree harvesting and the health of ecosystems under Sycamore management, and maintains the condition of Sycamore's 30 miles of trails.
