Free Webinar: Your Land, Your Legacy – Exploring Conservation Easements

Are you a Norfolk County landowner interested in protecting your land for future generations? The Long Point Biosphere Region is hosting a free webinar featuring guest speaker Paul Peterson to provide a clear introduction to Conservation Easement Agreements (CEAs). This session will explain what a CEA is, how it works, who may be eligible, and the potential benefits, responsibilities, and long-term considerations involved. CEAs are voluntary legal agreements that can help landowners conserve important natural or agricultural features on their property while retaining ownership.
