Largest continuous habitat in southern Maine to be protected from development

PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • September 23, 2024

The largest undeveloped tract on the Maine side of the Salmon Falls estuary with the largest continuous habitat along the coastline in southern Maine will now be forever protected. The Great Works Regional Land Trust secured enough grant funding and donations to buy the 79-acre area. The land trust also purchased 75 acres in North Berwick known as Bauneg Beg Mountain Recreation Area as part of its Woods to Water Campaign, which raised $3 million.
