We are so grateful for this past year and everyone who has shared it with us. In 2022 we built a new trail loop at Little Ponds Preserve, exceeded our Forever Campaign goal, hosted 10 sessions of Nature Day Camp, engaged hundreds of people with educational events, launched our new website, continued to send you interesting and informative newsletters, and much more! As your community land trust, we are dedicated to preserving Harspwell’s natural resources, providing access to land and shore, and engaging people of all ages with nature-based education. Thank you to our volunteers and donors for making all we do possible!
As 2022 comes to a close, we hope you’ll consider a year-end gift. Every donation makes a difference! Click here to make a gift
