Meet the Orleans County Team
As Conservation Specialist, Abraham will be working on the Memphremagog RCPP doing conservation practice planning and nutrient management plan development and updating and working on Lake Shore Restoration Programing.
Abraham grew up in a farming community in Connecticut. He fell in love with Vermont when he pursued an education in Environmental Science at Green Mountain College in Poultney. After working on farms out of college, he went on to learn about land management by controlling invasive plants. This led him to conservation work for The Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests. After six years of working with land trusts, he decided he wanted to focus on projects which would more directly help the land and the people who live there. He lives in Brownington with his partner Maia and their adventurous cat. He enjoys fishing, boating, aquaponics and skiing.
