What's Happening at Five Rivers!
October, 2024 – Five Rivers Conservation Trust is pleased to announce the permanent conservation of the 90-acre Foster Meadow Farm on Water Street in Boscawen. Foster Meadow Farm is a well-known equestrian facility that specializes in training horses and riders in dressage. The 90-acre conservation easement was donated to Five Rivers by Pam Goodrich, who purchased the property in 1996 and built the equestrian facility.
Nov. 17, 2024 – Join us on Sunday, November 17th from 12:30-4pm as we explore the Dustin Woods in Contoocook, an active project along the Warner River. We will explore what a conservation project entails and enjoy an approximately four mile walk on mostly level trails. We welcome you to join us to learn about what makes this property unique—and why we’re so excited about conserving it!
November 2023 – Following years of preparation, Five Rivers is pleased to release our Regional Conservation Plan that will guide our work in the strategic protection of natural resources, productive forests and farmlands, and recreation opportunities for years to come. We hope the interactive maps will invite conversations with partners – existing and new – and help us strengthen and build partnerships to accomplish more community-centered conservation work.
