At long last, we are thrilled to announce the successful completion of our mission to preserve the 40 acres of pristine beauty on Highland Lake in Stoddard, New Hampshire. “Failure was not an option” was our motto. Thanks to the unwavering support and generous contributions from both organizations like the Us Forest Service, LCHIP and individuals like you, we have raised an astounding $1.5 million, enabling us to secure the land and forever protect it as the Little Big Forest, and also create a stewardship fund so that we can make improvements as needed.
The Little Big Forest stands as a testament to the power of community and the dedication to nature conservation. Together, we have ensured that this idyllic piece of wilderness will thrive and remain untouched for generations to come. With its rich biodiversity, picturesque landscapes, and tranquil atmosphere, the Little Big Forest has now become a sanctuary for both wildlife and nature enthusiasts alike.
Through tireless efforts and countless donations, we officially closed the deal on July 7, 2023. This milestone marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Little Big Forest, where it will forever serve as a symbol of hope and environmental stewardship. From the bottom of our hearts, we extend our deepest gratitude to every single person who contributed to this remarkable achievement.
Your support has allowed us to fulfill our mission of preserving and protecting this precious natural gem. By acquiring the land, we have guaranteed that future generations will have the opportunity to explore its wonders, learn about the importance of conservation, and find solace in the embrace of nature.
As we move forward, we are excited to share our next steps with you. We will be hosting two public listening sessions in September, where we invite the community to provide their input and ideas on how the Little Big Forest can best serve the needs of both people and wildlife. These sessions will be crucial in shaping the future of the forest and ensuring that it remains a cherished resource for all.
We encourage you to mark your calendars and join us for these important listening sessions. Together, we can create a vision for the Little Big Forest that aligns with our shared values of conservation, education, and community engagement. Your voice matters, and we value your insights as we plan for the future.
This success story would not have been possible without your belief in our cause. Your contributions, whether big or small, have made a lasting impact on the preservation of the Little Big Forest.
Join us in celebrating this remarkable achievement as we embark on a journey to nurture and protect the Little Big Forest. Together, we have created a legacy of conservation that will endure for years to come.
