Connecting Conservation and Community in Farmington
High Peaks Alliance recently joined the Colonial Daughters Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in Farmington for a successful gathering focused on conservation, local trails, and the future of Maine’s High Peaks region.
Amanda Laliberte opened with an overview of High Peaks Alliance and its work to conserve land and protect recreational access. She then highlighted local trails and ongoing projects, connecting the Alliance’s broader mission to the places people explore and enjoy close to home.
The gathering offered an opportunity to introduce attendees to HPA’s work and strengthen connections with community members who care about the region’s future. From enjoying a local trail to supporting long-term conservation, there are many ways to help care for the High Peaks.
A Legacy of Stewardship
The event also provided an opportunity to recognize Deborah Rose, a member of HPA’s legacy society. Deborah’s deep connection to the region and her planned gift of land reflect a commitment to protecting the places she loves for future generations. Her story is featured in our Voices of the High Peaks interview, where she shares her personal history and hopes for the land’s future.
Supporters like Deborah demonstrate how a love of place can become a lasting conservation legacy. Including High Peaks Alliance in an estate plan helps sustain its work beyond a donor’s lifetime. Learn more about the options on our planned giving page.
Thank you to the Colonial Daughters Chapter for welcoming High Peaks Alliance and to everyone who attended. We appreciate the opportunity to share our work and build community connections that help keep the High Peaks accessible and protected for generations to come.
