The conference will bring together a wide variety of organizations and individuals to examine what's presently known about the forces that are fragmenting the farms and forests that are America's working lands. Invited speakers include urban sprawl experts, demographers, economists, policy leaders and agricultural and forestry representatives. A broad coalition of private and public organizations concerned with sustaining working landscapes is sponsoring the conference. Experts will examine what we know about private forests of all sizes, what is happening to them today, and how that affects rural and urban working landscapes. A proceedings will be printed and publicized to make the conference papers and discussions widely available through as many communications channels as possible.
