After meeting with Jeffrey Marshall, I sat down to meet with Marian Sumner, Vice President, Planning & Implementation, of the Heritage Conservancy.

Marian talks about the comprehensive strategic plan which they recently undertook at the same time they were going through accreditation.  She also discusses how she got involved in land conservation.  We round out the podcast with a discussion of a project the Conservancy has been working on in New Jersey.   A great project for land conservation, with many opportunities for public outreach.

Listen in and then check out their website for more information.

You can also learn more about accreditation and the Land Trust Accreditation Commission.
