WOODSTOCK — The Woodstock Open-Space, Land Acquisition and Farmland Preservation Committee announces the dedication of a preservation plaque at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 13 at Woodstock Town Hall.
Over the years, nearly 50 families have taken steps to permanently protect their Woodstock lands. Some sold their development rights to the Department of Agriculture, others donated or sold their land to local land trusts including the New Roxbury Land Trust, the Wyndham Land Trust, and the Connecticut Farmland Trust.
Now the town of Woodstock, acting through the Open Space and Farmland Preservation Committee, will honor those families. Representatives of local land trusts, land owners, and state and local officials have been invited.
The event is open to the public and refreshments will be served. For more information contact the Woodstock Town Clerk at 860.928.6595 x 320; or Dawn C. Adiletta, chair, Open-Space and Farmland Preservation Committee 860.928.4369
