Description

Public access to private land is a mutually beneficial relationship between recreational users and private landowners. The key to this relationship is respect and appreciation for each other. This compromise is not something unique to Maine. In this episode, Kris meets with landowner Doug Duran to discuss his Sharing the Land initiative that branched out from his 430-acre legacy farm in Wisconsin. Learn about the impact that Doug has made across multiple states which has helped outdoor enthusiasts and landowners navigate the various challenges of landownership and wildlife management. Discover how keeping your land open can help with wildlife conflicts and why it’s important to appreciate landowners who allow you use their land.

Unlike most states, Maine has a long tradition of public access to private land; but what that really means – and what private landowners expect – isn’t widely understood. Host Kris MacCabe will take listeners inside the long-standing yet delicate relationship between Maine’s owners and users – hearing from landowners about what motivates them to keep their property open for recreation and conservation, and in other cases getting the stories behind freshly-posted No Trespassing signs.
