Prime Forest Saved From Development
Our 40 acre sugar bush property had a large sub division proposal that would have impacted the Town of Willington's Fenton Ruby Park. After many months of negotiations we were able to purchase this land and keep it as undeveloped forest. The land is now in the State of Connecticut PA 490 program designated as forestland. It is being actively managed long term as a forest for maple syrup and wildlife habitat.
The sale of our syrup and honey helps offset the costs associated with forest management and keeps this land undeveloped.
Our forest is home to many species including deer, turkey and bobcats. It's also part the Fenton River Watershed which many people rely on for drinking water in the Windham area.
Saving forestland from development is imperative for preserving biodiversity and safeguarding essential ecosystems. Implementing sustainable land management practices are crucial steps toward safeguarding forested areas for future generations.
