Haynes Elmlea Conservation Project

Greenbelt is working to permanently protect the 42-acre Haynes Elmlea property in Boxford.

Identified as a conservation priority using Greenbelt’s Land Conservation Prioritization Analysis, this parcel is located within a larger conservation area with extensive ecological value. 

Conserving this land will:

• Preserve critical wildlife habitat and connectivity for flora and fauna
• Ensure existing recreational trails and connectors remain uninterrupted and open to the public
• Strengthen climate resilience as it relates to biodiversity and flood mitigation

We're delighted to report that, thanks to very generous support from the Greenbelt community, we've successfully reached our fundraising goal.  A June closing is anticipated.
