    <title>Vermont Dairy Farm Saved</title>
    <link>http://www.landtrustalliance.org/land-trusts/ne-success/vermont-dairy-farm</link>
    <description>VT - Molly Davies remembers driving past the Chandler Pond Farm and admiring its enormous, cupola-topped barn. "When I heard it was up for sale," she says, "my first thought was, 'Oh no, another Vermont dairy farm bites the dust.'" But Molly acted quickly, selling her family's ski house in Stowe so she could buy the farm - not as a second home for herself, but as a working dairy farm for the right family. </description>

    <title>New Filing Requirment for Small Land Trusts!</title>
    <link>http://www.landtrustalliance.org/policy/advocates/alert-january-22</link>
    <description>Advocates Alert: January 22, 2008</description>
    <content:encoded xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"><![CDATA[Beginning in
2008, small tax-exempt organizations will have a new filing
requirement. It’s short, easy and electronic – it’s the new e-Postcard
(also called the Form 990-N).
<p>If you are a
tax-exempt organization that normally has annual gross receipts of
$25,000 or less and thus does not have to file Form 990 or 990-EZ, you
now <u>must</u> file the e-Postcard. The e-Postcard is due by the 15th
day of the fifth month after the close of your tax year. So if your
organization operates on a calendar year, the e-Postcard is due by May
15 of the following year.Nonprofits that do not file risk losing their
tax-exempt status.</p>
<p>If you think this new filing requirement  may apply to your organization, go to <a href="http://www.irs.gov/charities/index.html">http://www.irs.gov/charities/index.html</a> for complete details.</p>
