Enjoyed sharing events and information about many local and regional issues. Two Current Issues Open Space Is Important To NH Open space is one quality that Litchfield is known for.
Open space includes farmlands, forests, wetlands, and conservation easement areas.
Visitors and residents alike often comment on the beautiful farms and tree-lined roadways of Litchfield. Residents use open space by gardening, walking, jogging, swimming, skating, hunting, fishing, biking, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, horseback riding, and even hot air ballooning. The studies showed that developments require more taxes for town services, actually costing more than they generate. Therefore Preservation of Open Space is essential for life quality and economic reasons. The Land and Community Heritage Investment Program deserves everyone's support.
