S i E r r a C l u B n o V E m B E r m E E t i n g N a t u r e K N o w s B e s t : r e s t o r i N g o u r F o r e s t s Wednesday, November 8 at 7:00 pm Proforestation enables continuous forest growth uninterrupted by active management or "timber harvesting". There is little protection for our large trees and forests in New Jersey or the rest of the country. Every governmental plan proposed to mitigate climate change relies on natural landscapes to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Our presenter, Leslie Sauer, was raised on a farm near the covered bridge in Hunterdon County. She is a founder emeritus of Andropogon Associates, a pioneer in the field of restoring and managing native landscapes and was an adjunct professor at the University of Pennsylvania in Landscape Architecture and was a founding Board of Directors of the Society for Ecological Restoration. Her book, The Once and Future Forest (Island Press, 1998), is a guidebook for restoring and managing natural landscapes-especially remnant deciduous forests. This event is hybrid - In-person at the North Hunterdon County Library in Clinton and virtually on Zoom.

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to uer words, but to live by them." ~ John F. Kennedy l y n n p o r t E r , r E a l t o r C l i n t o n t o w n S h i p r E S i d E n t S i n C E 1 9 9 9 Grateful Thankful Blessed I love where I live and work and am happy to share my years of experience with buyers and sellers so they can make the most informed decisions. The best advice I can offer is that having a LOCAL and EXPERIENCED Realtor as your trusted partner is critical, whether buying or selling… Experience Makes the Difference! Firsthand knowledge of the area and experience closing real estate transactions are the most valuable resources you want in your agent because a successful real estate transaction requires more than effective marketing and staging. I am uniquely qualified with over 20 years of experience: • Negotiating the contract price and terms • Resolving inspection issues • Assisting with the mortgage loan process I work with a limited number of clients at any given time to be sure I have enough time to dedicate to each client so please reach out as soon as possible if you are thinking of buying or selling in 2024... Sellers – so we can put together a marketing plan that will maximize the presentation of your home for the best return on your investment. Buyers – so we can put together your plan and make you as competitive as possible and ready to win in a multiple offer situation.
