SHINGLE PLACE HILL 40B

DENIED! The Manchester ZBA voted unanimously DENY the permit for the proposed 40B. We applaud your decision, your strength and your conviction. The decision has been appealed at the state level, and we will continue our expert efforts in coordination with the town.
This is one small step for a town. Let’s make it one giant leap for the community and the environment, together! [read more…]
LAND STEWARDSHIP

MECT’s stewardship efforts seek to balance the protection of natural resources inherent in the land that we hold while allowing for appropriate public access, use and enjoyment of these very special places.
CONSERVATION

MECT has launched a $5 Million dollar capital campaign to Save Our Woods. As part of this campaign, we currently have an urgent need for fundraising to protect 20 acres off Rocky Hill Road in Essex.
EVENTS

Find events with naturalists, geologists, forest bathing, or learn hiking and orienteering skills. Join in the fun and experience something new. We look forward to seeing you on the trails and at our in-person events whenever possible.
SUPPORT

You can choose to donate to our general fund or a specific interest like the defense of Shingle Place Hill against the rapacious 40B development. Donations are critical for MECT to fulfill our mission and ensure solid support for our land acquisition and protection goals, as well as our land stewardship and education for the community and our members.
