The Housing & Agricultural Lands Workgroup is open to all housing, planning, farmland conservation, and land use professionals interested in working together to address issues that arise at the intersection of housing development and agricultural land use in New Hampshire. The workgroup will meet regularly to foster dialogue, find alignment on common interests, and discover collaborative solutions in the following areas, with a particular focus on moving forward recommendations made in the Land Use Planning brief and the Farmland Conservation, Access, and Succession brief of the New Hampshire Food and Agriculture Strategic Plan.
This workgroup will be led by Noah Hodgetts, Principal Planner for the Office of Planning and Development, Department of Business and Economic Affairs and Sarah Wrightsman Manager of Community Engagement and Education for New Hampshire Housing
The H&AL workgroup will be launching in September 2025. The group will decide on its specific focus over the course of the first 2-3 meetings. If you are interested in joining this workgroup, please email the workgroup leads at their contact information below.
