The preservation of the remaining farms in Windham has been a major focus for the Commission. After discussions with several landowners the Commission received permission to appraise their properties. At this time two appraisals have been completed. The primary goal of the Commission in 2008 will be to closely work with the property owners to permanently protect these historic farms. View a photo gallery of these areas.

Also available on line is a partial representation of  Windham's Trail Network. These maps were created by Tim Schreiner, digital data collector and cartographer, Wayne Morris,  former Planning Board member and analog data collector, and Ross McLeod, Planning Board member and former member of the Conservation Commission. Also available, is a pdf version of the "Walking in Windham" booklet.
