Judy Walker talks about the founding of the Comox Valley Land Trust

Judy Walker is a long time resident of the Comox Valley. She's also been intimately involved in land use planning, landscape design, conservation and stewardship activities, and now viticulture and farming on her Comox property. Judy is a Landscape Architect and works professionally as a planner for local government. She was also on the Founding Board of the Comox Valley Land Trust (www.CVLandTrust.ca / www.Facebook.com/CVLandTrust).

In this interview Judy talks to me about what got her involved in founding the Comox Valley Land Trust, some of the reasons why we need this kind of organization in our region, one of the principal accomplishments of the Trust during her years (the Nature Without Borders report), and what others of us can do to support the CV Land Trust in it's work, and the work of its partner organizations through initiatives like the Comox Valley Conservation Strategy.

Conversations about Conservation
This is one of a series of conversations about conservation in the Comox Valley being sponsored by the Comox Valley Land Trust and the Comox Valley Conservation Strategy. There are many perspectives on conservation and stewardship and how these have an impact on our quality of life here in this region. This series of conversations will help to draw out some of the reasons why people are involved, and how smarter land use planning and development has a positive impact on all of us in the Comox Valley.
