Join the Mattapoisett Land Trust (MLT) on Sunday June 12, 1:00 pm for a guided walk along upper portions of the tidal Mattapoisett River. MLT is working to preserve the 4-acre Alves parcel and open the land for public use and river access. Placing the Alves parcel and other nearby lands in conservation protects important wildlife habitat buffers Mattapoisett from climate change impacts and opens a beautiful area of meadow, forest and riverbank to public enjoyment.
In addition, this parcel and nearby lands include some of the earliest sites in Mattapoisett settled by Europeans. Come join us and see this special place! The walk will depart from 3 Mattapoisett Neck Road, just south of Route 6. Please park on the west side of Mattapoisett Neck Road across the street. The terrain is gentle, but wear sturdy, mud-proof shoes and dress for the weather. For more information, please see MLT’s website www.mattlandtrust.org or email us at info@mattlandtrust.org.
