Description: The heart and soul of West Virginia is deeply intertwined with its mountains, valleys, and rivers. From its working farms to reclaimed minelands, timbered forests to historic battle sites, the state’s landscapes are cherished by generations of West Virginians and are increasingly a draw for recreational tourists, remote workers, and second-home owners. As the state plans for growth and development, what will the future look like for beloved Appalachian landscapes? How will our engagement with and use of land transform as we face a warming climate, a biodiversity crisis, and increasing land fragmentation? Why is West Virginia considered to be climate-resilient, and how can we be proactive in addressing coming changes?

You’re invited to an informal, online conversation with Dr. Brent Bailey, Executive Director of the West Virginia Land Trust and a native West Virginian, who will share his perspective from decades of experience. This is an opportunity for our friends statewide to share your questions, concerns, and ideas with the leader of the state’s largest land protection organization.

RSVP: The session will be held on Zoom. Registration is required for the participation link. If you have any questions in the meantime, feel free to email Robinne Gray at robinne@wvlandtrust.org. We look forward to seeing you on Zoom!
