1.) Read over the Advisory Board Scoring Guide. This is a rubric that assists the advisory board in scoring all narratives. 2.) Answer each question and sub-question directly, even if it is to explain, “Our property does not contain wetlands and therefore this question does not apply to our farm.” 3.) Answers from previous applications are public record and may be used for helpful comparison. These can be requested by contacting the Office of Farmland Preservation.
