Teawaddle Hill Farm and Mineral Hills Projects Getting Closer!

We have met our fundraising goals for the iconic Teawaddle Hill Farm with 147-acres in Leverett, thanks to all who contributed to this effort. AND, the town has approved the use of additional CPA funds to complete the conservation of this special property. Thank you to all the Leverett residents who supported this effort with their votes!

 

In the Mineral Hills, we are very close to meeting our fundraising goal, but it's not too late to help! We still have $2,000 more to raise to complete the project.
