Camden County Boat House

New Jersey leads the nation in its commitment to preserve farmland and open space.

However, state, county, and municipal staffs are being asked to do more with a lot less. Some county and municipal governments are rising to the challenges of sustainably managing open space and other public lands. Nonprofit organizations and local land trusts are also key partners in both preserving land and the ongoing management of preserved lands.

Join the Natural Lands Trust (NLT) and the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) for this one-day workshop planned specifically for county and municipal government professionals which will highlight those communities and organizations who are working together to save green, while going green.

The cost of the workshop, which includes a light breakfast and full lunch, is $25. Registration is now open: https://getinvolved.natlands.org/Shoestring

The following professional continuing education credits are pending:
AICP Certification Maintenance Credits (3.5 hours)
Certified Public Works Manager Credits (4 hours)
American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) Continuing Education Credits (3.5 hours)

Certificates of continuing education for engineers will be available upon request.
