Ties to the Land
It is never too early to develop a succession plan - planning the long-term future of your land is perhaps the single most important thing you can do as a land steward, whether of forestland, farmland, or ranchland. Your land will outlast you, but you can take steps now to ensure that it has a positive future. "Failing to plan is planning to fail."
The WSU Snohomish County Extension Forestry, Agriculture, and Family Living programs are teaming up to offer the award-winning Ties to the Land estate/succession planning workshop again. The workshop was originally scheduled for October 2009,it has been rescheduled for January 21 and 28 in Arlington. More details and registration information.
