Who We Are

Mission

The New Marlborough Land Trust encourages and promotes the preservation of natural resources in the Town of New Marlborough to protect the Towns unique rural character. The Land Trust works in concert with the citizens and governing bodies of New Marlborough for the benefit of the environment, our local economy, community education and future generations.

History

In 1976, a group of eight New Marlborough residents, enthusiastic about preserving the unique natural resources of our town, jointly purchased 278 acres beside Thousand Acre Pond. In 1983, they formed the New Marlborough Land Trust, with Dr. Rita Mathews as president, and donated the acreage to the new organization. Today the Land Trust actively stewards some 885 acres across multiple properties.
