SELT will host the Wild & Scenic Film Festival at the Music Hall Historic Theater in Portsmouth on Friday, April 14th at 7pm. Experience a unique collection of handpicked films, telling amazing stories of the human-nature connection. This show SOLD OUT the last two years so be sure to grab your tickets early!
Sap buckets, mud season, and town meetings – it must be spring in New England! And this March both Rochester and Stratham will be considering municipal funding to support conserving working farms –
Gauthier’s Farm and
Barker’s Farm. These SELT-led projects continue our focus on farmland for the future.
The land management plan for SELT’s Burley Farms in Epping places a high priority on retaining and enhancing the high value wildlife habitats found there. The focus now is on areas that have not been forested for very long, or that are just now reverting to woods after being actively farmed in the past.
