Mission: The mission of the Harwich Conservation Trust is to
preserve land that protects woods, water, wildlife and our shared quality
of life.
"Overlooking Mill Pond, a quarter-acre
donated in 1990 represents the Trust's very first piece of land
preserved forever. Looking west from the property, the stunning
sight of a shimmering autumn sunset is reflected in the still
water." |
History: The Trust is a non-profit land trust organization founded
in 1988 by citizens concerned with the rapid pace of development threatening
the fragile natural resources of Harwich. The Trust permanently protects
natural areas by receiving land donations, holding conservation restrictions
on properties, and purchasing land throughout Harwich. The Trust is
not affiliated with town government.
The Trust has helped to protect more than 448 acres, starting back in
1990 with a quarter-acre lot in East Harwich overlooking Mill Pond.
We have helped to preserve woodland north of Coy's Brook which is the
major tributary to the Herring River, land above public drinking water
supplies, land on the Monomoy River that flows into Pleasant Bay as
well as quiet white cedar wetlands and wide open salt marsh vistas viewable
from a wheelchair accessible boardwalk. Please visit the link to HCT's
