The land guide is well-known to anyone curious about Vermont’s forests, wetlands, mountaintops, and shores.
Co-authored by Elizabeth Thompson of the Vermont Land Trust, and Eric Sorenson and Robert Zaino of the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department, the new second edition incorporates recent scientific research about the state’s natural communities and includes descriptions of seventeen newly recognized natural community types.
The new guide includes photographs, line drawings, and user-friendly writing, related to natural habitats of Vermont. The updates will be useful to amateur naturalists and professional scientists.
“Natural communities help us understand nature. When people can see patterns across the landscape, they have a better appreciation of nature and a heightened sense of responsibility to protect it,” says co-author Elizabeth Thompson.
Natural communities are also important for the conservation of plants, animals, and habitats in Vermont.
The book is published by the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department, The Nature Conservancy, and the Vermont Land Trust, and it is distributed by Chelsea Green Publishing.
It is currently available for pre-order online (https://vtfishandwildlife.com/wetland-woodland-wildland) and is expected to be for sale in local bookstores by November 15.
