Congrats to all involved in this addition to an important conservation area. Great example of patience + perseverance -- so key to land protection success. Looking forward to a walk in the woods there next time I'm in the neighborhood!

Belated thanks Vermont Land Trust for highlighting this effort to honor the legacy of longtime conservation activist and visionary Virginia Farley. Grateful to have had her as a close friend and colleague, and to be part of this effort.

A great opportunity for rising conservationists to gain valuable field experience in the Canadian Maritime provinces this summer - and have a lot of fun in the process! Applications due by Feb. 28. Learn more about Quebec-Labrador Foundation at qlf.org.

So good to see this key part of what’s needed to sustain #biodiversity getting the attention it needs and deserves from the highest levels of the US government. Well done and thanks, @WHCEQ.

Cool! Another of the endless wonders of #nature, helped along by forward-looking conservation. Thanks, The Nature Conservancy in Vermont and others involved in conserving this special place for the long haul.
