With more than 160 properties and 8,300+ acres of open spaces protected by conservation easements, volunteers are critical to our ability to monitor and enforce our easements. Easement monitors visit the same property (or properties) annually, meet with landowners, observe its condition, and report back observations to the Land Trust.
SELT needs help in establishing and maintaining trails, removing invasive species, and keeping a watchful eye on our lands.
