Rockland Bog Trails
We’re working with local residents to improve trails and signage in the Rockland Bog and promote its care and stewardship. We don’t want to lose what makes it special– its wildness.

550 New Acres Underway
We’re protecting new lands in every section of our watershed.
Including a working farm, additional river frontage, and lands that will provide additional access to the Rockland Bog.

Accessible Trails
We’re rerouting and restoring overused trail sections and making new trails more accessible for hikers, cyclists, and slow movers to enjoy.
Got Land?
As a land trust, we conserve lands that offer significant value in capturing carbon, protecting biodiversity and are highly resilient in the face of a changing climate. We protect these lands permanently through acquisition, acceptance of land donations or through conservation easements.
