Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to a fantastic 2023! This year we protected the new Anna M. Tondreau Preserve, finished a new trail at the Helen and Walter Norton Preserve on Birch Island, hosted 10 sessions of Nature Day Camp, received more than 400 submissions to the Photo Project, and so much more. Thank you to our volunteers and donors who make our work possible! We are so lucky to be your local land trust.
As 2023 comes to a close, please consider making a year-end gift if you haven’t already. Click here to make a gift. Every donation makes a difference!
