Featured story

Where are the cows?

Aldermere Farm has 19 pastures where the Belted Galloways graze, and our herd moves pastures every three to four days. The moves are based on a calendar created by our farmers each year that is adapted on the fly as conditions change.

Maine’s unique opportunities

Nature is big here and so is our work:
restoring rivers, safeguarding habitat, and building climate resilience.
Together with Maine communities, we expand access to the outdoors
and secure a healthier future for people and wildlife.
