2024 Board Candidate: Hope Sterling
Westport is so special to me because of its amazing mix of coastline, farmland and small town character.
2024 Board Candidate: Ann Squire
As someone who grew up in Westport, I see so many changes from my childhood. I know change cannot be prevented, but I think it is very important to protect as much as Westport’s open land and farms as we can.
Telling the Weather By the Birds
Birds of prey, songbirds, swifts and hummingbirds–Westport is on the flight path of many migratory birds, pulled here by the rich resources of our riverine and coastal habitats.
Gardening for Conservation Education
This Spring we’re planting a new garden at Westport Woods which we hope will inspire visitors to learn about plants’ roles in our larger ecosystems and relationship to wildlife by connecting it to the fun of backyard horticulture.
March is For Mowing Meadows
WLCT maintains several meadows, all at different stages of growth. Mowing in March allows for optimal growth of the grasses and attention to small mammals and birds that rely on the meadows.
