September 2–15 is peak monarch butterfly migration week for our area. Scientists who study monarch migration use information gathered from observations recorded online and tagging programs to learn more about this amazing natural phenomenon. Everyone is invited to help Sullivan County Conservation District & Upper Valley Land Trust collect more information through monarch tagging.
As we approach the end of the growing season at UVLT's Food Pantry Garden at Up on the Hill Conservation Area, it's time to prepare the garden for winter. After a successful season, we need your helping hands to wrap up our final harvests, clear out old plants and weeds, and ready the soil for next year!
Join us for Fall Paddle the Border on Sunday, October 6, 2024. The Paddle The Border (PTB) event was started as a way for community organizations from Vermont and New Hampshire to work together to showcase our shared asset, the Connecticut River.
Join the Upper Valley Land Trust and the Orford Conservation Commission for a special hike up this prominent peak in the Connecticut River Valley!
We’ll explore the origin of this intriguing name while soaking in stunning views of the river, including the iconic Fairlee/Orford Bridge. Along the way, we’ll take breaks to discover the natural wonders that make this hike truly special.
