Coastal land conservation event draws a crowd

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • March 17, 2024

What Maine Coast Heritage Trust initially called a “small event” raised over $78,000 for coastal land conservation. The March 7 fundraiser called Tides of Change drew 300 people to Maine Beer Co. for an evening in support of land conservation. Guests enjoyed craft beer and cocktails, charcuterie, pizza and local oysters, as well as live music downstairs and nature-focused visual arts upstairs. Since 1970, Maine Coast Heritage Trust has worked with a variety of partners to protect 337 islands and 180,000 acres of Maine’s coast.
