Weston’s Conservation – Legacy and Future
October 16, 2019 - 7:00pm
Weston Historical Society
Presented by the Weston Historical Society in partnership with the Aspetuck Land Trust and The Nature Conservancy
“Weston’s Conservation – Legacy and Future” will feature David Brant, executive director of the Aspetuck Land Trust, Cynthia Fowx, conservation outreach and Devil’s Den preserve manager of The Nature Conservancy, and Samantha Kulish-Fargione, executive director of the Weston Historical Society.
Their talk will focus on the past, present and future of Weston’s land conservation efforts. Alice DeLamar, Eva Le Gallienne and Katharine Ordway were three remarkable women, forces of nature in their fields of the arts, theater and philanthropy. What they had in common was a love for Weston’s wild spaces and a desire to preserve it for generations to come. Their generosity resulted in the preservation of 1,100 acres of open space to the Aspetuck Land Trust and The Nature Conservancy, which continues to manage the land today. A question and answer session will follow.
