The Acton Conservation Trust (ACT) is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to the protection and preservation of Acton's open space through land acquisitions, conservation restrictions, and public policy changes. We provide education to landowners and the public about options for preservation. ACT is one of more than 130 such land trusts in Massachusetts. To join us: contact Susan Mitchell-Hardt at info@actonconservationtrust.org
Identify open space parcels under threat of development and seek ways to minimize development.
Create a constituency of like-minded citizens to support land preservation in Acton.
Work with town government, business and landowners to encourage public policies which provide for the conservation of open space.

A
family of deer on the edge of a field at dusk is a lovely sight...but
is it possible that there are too many deer in our area? Patricia
Huckery, will share the recent experience of several towns in dealing
successfully with this timely issue. She will explain how by working
together, public and private land owners can prevent problems, such
as forests which cannot regenerate, excessive deer tick incidence,
car accidents, and damage to farms and gardens. She will also
address, the question of feeding deer during the winter, and how high
numbers of deer can affect rare and endangered plants and animals.
Please join us and bring a friend! For more information contact Susan Mitchell-Hardt, 978-369-9264.
