WINTHROP – The Kennebec Land Trust will celebrate its newest land acquisition, Weston Woods Preserve, at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 12.
The 55-acre preserve in East Winthrop was donated by Bob and Jim Weston. In late December, the preserve, on Little Cobbossee Lake, was permanently protected by KLT. Weston Woods includes 1,315 feet of undeveloped shoreline; forested, scrub-shrub, and emergent wetlands; 1,500 feet of perennial streams; and land designated as Inland Waterfowl and Wading Bird Habitat.
The event is free and open to the public. For more information, call 207-377-2848 or email info@tklt.org.
