About this organization
Mission
Founded in 2002 to fill an open niche in the regional conservation community—protecting wildlands—Northeast Wilderness Trust’s mission is to conserve forever-wild landscapes for nature and people. On forever-wild lands, people take a step back and natural processes unfold freely. Today, NEWT remains the only regional land trust in the Northeast focused exclusively on protecting wildlands and now protects over 41,000 acres across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
About
Created for the purpose of working with landowners, government agencies, conservation organizations and other land trusts to restore and preserve forever wild landscapes through conservation easements, land acquisitions, donations and other preservation methods such as outreach and education. The organization bases its land protection priorities on conservation science, wilderness potential, community vision, threat and opportunity. Working in ME, NH, VT, NY, MA, and CT, the organization is funded principally by grants and donations from the public. Land acquisition projects are funded by a variety of sources, including but not limited to private contributions, governmental grants, and landowner gifts.
