The Bridgewater Land Trust was founded in 1987. A non-profit organization administered by town residents, the Land Trust supports a variety of conservation and education activities aimed at protecting Bridgewater’s natural resources, including land acquisition and donation, conservation easements, support of local farms, and sponsorship of educational and other programs. Their mission is “Preserve. Protect. Care.”
Becoming a Bridgewater Land Trust volunteer is a wonderful way to connect with like-minded others as well as a chance to get to know the people who steer and support the organization. Volunteered time, energy, and talents are invested locally, in the community, and all efforts translate into visible, living, lasting results.
