Yesterday, the center of North Brookfield was a happening place! Tents on the church lawn, people wandering through the library and everyone supporting local businesses. We were there too! Talking about land trust activities, especially things of interest to folks in North Brookfield…. Wendemuth Meadow and the fundraising challenge from a local supporter. Right now, every dollar donated to permanently protect Wendemuth Meadow will be matched, up to $4,000.

The Friends of Wendemuth group is nearing the end of their fundraising push. They secured $40,000 already. Just another $10,000 to reach their goal of $50,000. Yesterday people dropped 5s, 10s and 20s into the jar, raising over $200 that will be doubled. You can help too by donating now! Use the button on the side bar or go to the Wendemuth page. Thank you!
