Happy Monday from Fitzwilliam, where we have some big news: 86 acres which include the slope of The Pinnacle – Fitzwilliams’s second highest peak – are now forever conserved!
Landowner Peter Smith of Newton Massachusetts donated the conservation easement covering this land his family has owned since the 1940s and covered the costs of finalizing the easement. The Monadnock Conservancy will hold the conservation easement and monitor the land for generations to come. Thank you Peter for working with Anne McBride and our Land Protection team to see this land conserved!
These acres sit near other conserved and undeveloped land, including the 2,700-acre Rhododendron State Park, other land under easement with the Conservancy, and land owned by the Town of Fitzwilliam.
