Success! On September 12, 2024, the Harvard Conservation Trust (HCT) conveyed a conservation restriction (CR) to SVT on Eastern Greenway-North, marking SVT's 100th CR! This land is now permanently protected as open space and wildlife habitat.
This property is the backbone of a much larger area of ecologically rich lands where wildlife will have room to roam, forever.
Thank you to HCT for being an incredible partner on this collaborative effort, and thank you to the tremendous support we received from foundations and individual donors who helped us meet our fundraising goal for this project in 2022.
Creating Connectivity in the High Ridge
At a Glance
- SVT and the Harvard Conservation Trust (HCT) worked together to protect 45 acres of important wildlife habitat in Harvard.
- This land, which is called Eastern Greenway-North, is part of a larger HCT effort that conserved 200 acres of contiguous open space.
- By protecting Eastern Greenway-North, we have knit together a network of conserved lands and created an expansive wildlife corridor in the High Ridge area of Harvard, Littleton, and Boxborough.
