Somerset Woods Trustees

Founded in 1927, Somerset Woods Trustees is a nonprofit land trust serving the communities of Somerset County. Working in partnership with willing landowners, Somerset Woods is responsible for more than 3,000 acres forever conserved for wildlife and fisheries habitat, outdoor recreation and water access, and resiliency in a changing climate. We routinely partner with our communities to provide recreational access for all - including a community baseball field, public boat launches on the Kennebec, an ADA-compliant river walk and miles of mountain biking trails.

The Somerset Woods Trustees work to protect and conserve lands in Somerset County, Maine, with significant ecological or cultural resources, and manage them in a sustainable way for public benefit.
