On July 14th 2023 the Piscataquog Land Conservancy completed the acquisition of a key 22-acre property on the slopes of Rose Mountain in Lyndeborough. The new land increases the size of our Rose Mountain Preserve to 211 acres and secures a key segment of the trail system on the mountain. The opportunity to acquire the property came up suddenly in early June, and PLC had to move fast or lose the land to an out-of-state buyer. In two weeks, we negotiated and signed a purchase agreement that gave us an additional month to raise the $50,000 required to cover the land purchase and closing costs. In just thirty days, more than ninety individuals, families, and organizations contributed to the campaign, and we reached our $50,000 goal with a few hours to spare. To every one of you who answered our urgent call for help, THANK YOU! Whether you contributed a lot or a little, your donation helped make this project happen.
