On August 25th, Hillsborough County Forester, Mike Gagnon, will present on Silviculture. "Silviculture is the art and science of producing and tending a forest. Good forest stewardship follows ecological principles to accomplish a variety of goals and objectives such as; timber production, habitat management, forest resiliency, aesthetics, recreation, carbon, water protection, and other ecosystem services."
The presentation begins at 6PM in the Matthew Thornton Room of town hall.
Important Notice:
Please check with NH Fish and Game or other sources about hunting seasons in New Hampshire. Before enjoying a property make sure to confirm whether hunting is permitted. In season, it is recommended that you and your pets wear blaze orange on any properties where hunting is permitted.
Enjoy the Properties but respect the land and your neighbors...
As you venture into our properties, please remember to:
- Respect and allow others to pass you on the trails.
- If the parking lot is full, please don't create parking places. Simply come back another time. Creating "new" parking spaces creates maintenance issues, impedes the access of emergency vehicles, and lessens the beauty we are all trying to enjoy.
- Respect the neighbors of our properties and do not park on their land, block driveways or mailboxes, or leave trash behind.
- Lastly, don't over exert yourself, and remember your bug repellent!
Need a map for one of our major properties? we have them and they are all new and updated. The work was done by the GIS department at the Nashua Regional Planning Commission. Hardcopies of the maps are available at the trail kiosks. For digital copies, click on one of the following links: HHNP, GW, WCCA, Wasserman.
We are looking for pictures. We are expanding the gallery pages on our website and pictures from all of you enjoying our properties will make this fun for everyone who visits our website. Upload your photos on the News page.
To see the business side of the Commission (agendas, minutes, etc.) please visit us on our Town webpage. This is where you will find our sub-committee business information as well.
