Your membership matters.
Over our 30+ years, Androscoggin Land Trust’s mission to conserve and connect people to treasured outdoor places has always relied greatly on gifts from our members.
You will help combat climate change locally by protecting local land from development.
You will be protecting drinking water and caring for the Androscoggin River by supporting the stewardship of conservation easements along the shoreline of Lake Auburn and 10 miles of river frontage plus hundreds of acres of critical wetlands that feed the Androscoggin River from Jay down to Bowdoin.
You will be protecting land for wildlife that enriches our lives.
You will support opportunities for free, public recreation by supporting trail improvements on conserved land in four Maine counties.
