the location
The Kennebunkport Conservation Trust is dedicated to preserving land for use by current and future generations, and to managing properties in a way that reflects the natural and cultural heritage of Kennebunkport.
The concept of community conservation is sweeping the country and strengthening communities. It is the practice of blending land preservation, stewardship, member engagement, along with education of natural and historical resources into one program. With this approach, the health of both people and landscapes benefit from one another.
The Kennebunkport Conservation Trust has conserved over 2,800 acres of land from development. While many of those acres are protected purely for the preservation of their ecosystems, numerous properties are open to the public for exploration and recreation.
