Initial Recommendations for Bird and Pollinator Friendly Management Intervale Center and Farms

This report is an initial habitat assessment and list of preliminary recommendations for the Intervale Center and any of the independently operated farms leasing and working land on the property in Burlington, Vermont. The purpose of this report is to describe current site conditions and offer ideas for management options to guide the development of future conservation plans. Audubon Vermont and the Gund Institute at the University of Vermont have partnered for a Bird and Bee Friendly Farming Initiative to promote the creation and improvement of on-farm habitat for birds and pollinators and to document the ecological and economic benefits of those practices on demonstration farms.
