Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
To build reciprocal relationships to land through conservation, recreation, and education.
-
Stewardship: Conduct annual monitoring of all easement properties and address any potential violations. Maintain trails, parking areas, and other features of fee properties. In 2024, we created a part-time staff position devoted to stewardship, which greatly increased our capacity to build and maintain trails. Several trails were severely damaged during spring 2024 storms, and significant maintenance work went into recovering and improving these trails. Work was done to identify and remove invasive stilt grass from one parcel. All easement and fee properties were monitored.
Expenses $86,182
-
Restoration and Ecological Management: Combat invasive plants and restore wetlands. In 2024, work was done to combat invasive milfoil in Shapleigh Pond.
Expenses $12,543
-
Recreation and Education: Promote interest in and connection to the land through educational programs and recreational programs, including maintaining lands and trails for educational and recreational use. In 2024, we partnered with the Sanford schools to support ecological education activites for students.
Expenses $9,481
-
Conservation: Protect land that benefits local communities from development through purchase or conservation easement. In 2024, we accepted a fee donation of a 93-acre property, and a conservation easement on a 70-acre property.
Expenses $4,604
As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
