Writing the Land: Maine

This anthology of poems and photography showcases many land trusts throughout Maine.

Poems for Kennebunk Land Trust  were written by Cynthia Lozier and inspired by

Mousam River Wildlife Sanctuary.

Photos of our preserves are from local residents. 

     Listen and see the inspiration

Poet Cynthia Lozier recorded a reading of one of her poems from the book.

Read our new 'Bird Blog'!

The KLT Bird Walk series was so exciting and full of wildlife - we wanted to share it with everyone!

Hear from the naturalist guides about the animals seen and heard on the early morning walks.

See incredible wildlife photos taken by guides and attendees.
