Overview

The Georgia Conservation Commission is a seven-member board of townspeople appointed by the Selectboard who volunteer their time and effort to support the core mission, which is to “preserve, protect, and enhance the native plants, animals, and their habitats in the town of Georgia, for current and future generations.”

Since 1993, commission members have donated countless hours of service to the town. Because of these efforts, Georgia currently boasts four properties that are now protected from development and are open to free public use.

  • Russell Greene Natural Area
  • Henley-Webster Town Forest
  • Lost Pond
  • Silver Lake Woods
  • Trail Maps
