Payment disclosure: No payment stated: No agency payment is stated; the service matches owners seeking deer-damage help with hunters seeking access.
Minimum acreage: No minimum acreage is published in the registration system.
Enrollment: Accepting interest

Who may qualify: Private Vermont landowners seeking help controlling deer damage may create a confidential profile for matching with registered hunters.

Owner control: Owner information is kept confidential for matching; a database match does not itself grant a hunter access, so the owner retains permission control.

Official next step: Create a landowner account in the official Landowner-Hunter Connection system and complete the matching profile.
