Brunswick Topsham Land Trust Logo
Only in its second decade of operation, the BTLT has a remarkable record of success. The Trust has completed many diverse projects that, together, have conserved hundreds of acres of critical open space by means of conservation easements, outright gifts and purchase. Vulnerable farmland, forests, wetlands and meadows throughout our communities have been preserved forever.

Current Projects

BTLT worked with Highland Green in Topsham and the Cathance River Education Alliance (CREA) to create a conservation easement over the 230 acre Cathance River Nature Preserve that now features public trails sloping down to and along the Cathance River. Along with monitoring 16 parcels of conservation land and working toward new easement possibilities, the Land Trust is also involved in a capital campaign to complete the purchase of Crystal Spring Farm on Pleasant Hill Road in Brunswick. When complete, the land trust will own 322 acres of open space that currently is home to the Crystal Spring Community Farm and Saturday farmers' market, open fields and woods crisscrossed with hiking and ski trails open to the public. Go to our Public Access to Protected Properties and Protected Properties pages to find details of these and other projects.
