WINTRHOP — As part of Earth Month, the Kennebec Land Trust will celebrate its newest land acquisition, the 22-acre Eastern River Preserve in Pittston, at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 27.
The public is invited to celebrate with KLT and the land donors, Judy Schuppien and Phil Brzozowski.
The Eastern River Preserve features more than 3,000 feet of frontage on the Eastern River. A 14-mile tributary of the Kennebec River, the Eastern River starts in East Pittston at the confluence of its west and east branches, and flows southwest past the historic village of Dresden Mills into the Kennebec River.
Located off Blodgett Road in Pittston, this Kennebec Land Trust preserve will be managed to protect wildlife habitat and water quality, for low impact outdoor recreation and for nature observation.
This spring, KLT stewardship director Jean Luc Theriault will construct a new trail on the property that will lead to a tidal hand-carry access point and scenic overlooks on the Eastern River.
For more information, contact the KLT office at 207-377-2848 or visit www.tklt.org.
