Conservation Commission

The tree is located on the Robert Strang property on the Jericho/Essex town line, Vermont Route 15, and has remarkably survived the ravages of both Dutch Elm Disease and the ubiquitous road salt to reach its current youthful majestic height.
The Jericho Conservation Commission (JCC) has an advisory role to the Selectboard, DRB, PC and other town commissions on best practices for management of natural resources in Jericho, including the use of the Conservation Reserve Fund. The Conservation Commission is committed to public education and strives to help Jericho residents learn more about the natural communities within our town and beyond. The JCC is also available for residential consultation on request. The JCC has membership in the Vermont Association of Conservation Commissions.

Meetings are held on the Third Wednesday of each month at 7:15 pm via Zoom.
