What dreams are made of… have YOU heard?!

Greenbelt, our Essex County's Land Trust, has the opportunity to conserve ‘133 Essex Street/Chebacco Woods’! Permanently protecting these 66 acres of land, we will safeguard clean water and the health of Beck Pond and the Chebacco watershed, support active local agriculture, preserve vernal pools and wildlife habitat and re-open trails for year-round recreation.

For the many years we have wished for this outcome — the time is now. In order for Greenbelt to permanently protect this property, they need to fundraise the $3.7M purchase price. With $1M already committed and a deadline of December 31st this year, please consider a generous gift to Greenbelt in support of this effort! 

With your help, we can achieve this goal and create a meaningful, lasting impact for the community!
