Sand Cove
In Maine, we are fortunate—nature is still big and bold, and it delivers stunning reminders that we are part of it. Together with partners, Maine Coast Heritage Trust (MCHT) is working to ensure that the lands and waters that make Maine so special are held sacred, remain a source of connection, and support all life for generations to come. We collaborate with landowners, communities, organizations, Tribal entities, and others to meet the challenges Maine faces and set our state up for a healthier future. (via site)
