Protecting Farm and Forest
Kestrel Land Trust and our partners are starting the year off right by conserving two wonderful places in our region: one farm and one forest. The farm is the iconic Teawaddle Hill Farm with 147-acres in Leverett. The forest is a 121-acre addition to the Mineral Hills Conservation Area in Northampton and Westhampton. We have $65,000 more to go to complete these projects. Now is your chance to help make sure these beautiful lands are protected forever!
