Who we are:
The Agricultural Commission was established by Town Meeting in May, 2006. The
five member board is an advisory body appointed by the Board of Selectmen. Three
members must be actively engaged in Agriculture. The Commission works
with the Selectboard, Town Boards, other local, regional and state officials,
regional farm and conservation advocacy organizations, members of the business
community, landowners, farmers, and citizens on issues relative to the agricultural
industry in Shelburne.
Mission Statement:
The Agricultural Commission’s mission is to preserve, champion
and energize Shelburne’s agricultural industry, including
forestry, to protect farmland and forests to encourage new entrants
in the pursuit of agriculture and to promote agricultural-based
economic activities.
