Conservation in Our Community: Celebrating Nearly 40 Years of Work by Coastal Mountains Land Trust

The next program in the Rockport Public Library’s series in partnership with the Appalachian Mountain Club, Maine Chapter, will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 22, at 6 p.m. The program entitled “Conservation in Our Community” will highlight nearly 40 years of conservation work by the Coastal Mountains Land Trust (CMLT).

CMLT Board President Jeff Davis and Senior Stewardship and Land Protection Manager Jack Shaida will share details on the work CMLT does across 16 towns, from Rockport to Prospect, and how conservation can be beneficial to communities in different ways. They’ll touch on land protection, stewardship, sustainability, and their Learning Landscapes Program, while answering overarching questions like: “What is a Land Trust?” and “How Do Conservation Easements Work?”

The program is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. For more information about this and other events at the Rockport Library, visit rockportlibrary.net.
