Land Conservation
Since its formation, the Tamworth Conservation Commission has assisted local landowners interested in protecting natural resources on their properties.  The Commission helps manage numerous conservation easements around town.  Areas of particular interest for land conservation are
   1.  Shoreland along ponds, rivers, and streams, and
   2.  Fairly large undeveloped blocks of land in western Tamworth that help provide wildlife connectivity between the Sandwich Range and the Ossipee Mountains.

Contact the Commission for assistance and more information: info@tamworthconservationcommission.org.

Saving Special Places:
Community Funding for Land Conservation

The Center for Land Conservation Assistance offers this guidebook to help concerned citizens, elected officials, and/or conservation commission members achieve community land conservation goals by securing local funding. The guidebook provides case studies to explain each funding mechanism through the direct experience of local citizens. It also includes sample warrant articles, newsletters, media releases, and other materials from communities who have succeeded in securing local land conservation funding.
