A working landscape is an approach to managing land that balances social, economic and ecological needs of the area. Which landowners do a better job treating the land and keeping it healthy, public owners or private owners? It’s not an easy question to answer because there are so many different ways to manage land. As our population grows, so do the demands we put on our natural areas. From houses to farms, landfills to hiking trails, working landscapes are a way of sustaining the land by balancing the social, economic, and ecological needs. Can we protect our natural areas and still use them? Find additional content and classroom resources at http://www.iptv.org/exploremore/land/default.cfm
