The Sebasticook River watershed offers countless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors in the spring and summer, whether it be hiking trails or birdwatching on SRLT conserved lands, or taking to the river and its many tributaries in a canoe or kayak. Keep an eye on our website for opportunities to join us on field trips to explore the amazing biodiversity found here, and sign up for our e-news to receive monthly updates! In the photo above, we paddled the Sebasticook River below the Benton Falls Dam during the annual alewife run and enjoyed the sight of nearly 100 eagles along with other signs of how important this river system (including the influx of millions of river herring!) is to wildlife.

THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS!
Thank you to our volunteer crews for helping to plant trees and shrubs at the Rines Preserve and clear trails at the Moulton's Mill Preserve (above). We will focus our upcoming workday on trail cleanup and removing invasive plants at Moulton's Mill. Hopefully you can join us in the future - it’s hard work but fun and always good to be outdoors!
