    What is the My Land Handbook and how do I get one? 
    front and side view of My Land Handbook

    The printing on the My Land Handbook makes it easily stand out against other binders.

    The My Land Handbook was developed as a tool to help you communicate with your next generation or land managers about your land and its history. It offers a place to keep all information regarding your land in one convenient location. The handbook was designed to capture the large details (like legal descriptions, tax information, and contact information of professionals that help manage the land) down to the small details (like where do you keep the tractor keys?) about your land. The intention of the My Land Handbook is to ease the transition when it comes time to pass on your property and to simplify the process of locating information about your property when filing taxes or applying to cost share programs. The My Land Handbook is a great tool to have in an emergency when you need to find information quickly, such as a natural disaster affecting your woodland or an unexpected death in the family.  For that reason it should be kept in a safe location.
