Northeast Wilderness Trust

The Northeast Wilderness Trust is a non-profit conservation organization based in Montpelier, Vermont working to preserve and restore forest landscapes in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Its mission is to conserve forever-wild landscapes for nature and people.
The Northeast Wilderness Trust works with landowners and partners to restore, rewild, and preserve forest landscapes through land acquisition, conservation easements, donations, and other conservation methods. Its land protection priorities are based on conservation science, wilderness potential, threat abatement, and opportunity.
Wilderness Trust projects include the Howland Research Forest (Maine), Alder Stream Wilderness Preserve (Maine), Eagle Mountain Wilderness Preserve (New York), Binney Hill Wilderness Preserve (New Hampshire), Bridgewater Wilderness Preserve (Vermont), and others across the Northeast. As of October of 2020, the organization protects over 37,000 acres of wilderness.
In February 2020, the Wilderness Trust purchased 50 acres of land connected to the Binney Hill Wilderness Preserve which includes the Binney Pond shoreline.
