What we’re about

We organize programs and events for the Scarborough Land Trust (SLT), a private, non-profit, community-based organization focused on conserving and stewarding land for people and wildlife—forever. SLT has conserved over 1600 acres in Scarborough; the natural and agricultural resources, scenic vistas, public access, wildlife habitat, and historical significance offer unique value to the broader community. SLT owns and maintains nine public preserves with parking and trails, open every day of the year. SLT’s mission also includes connecting people to these lands and each other through our programs, events, and volunteer opportunities. See some examples here:
https://scarboroughlandtrust.org/events/.

If you appreciate any of the following, we encourage you to join us:

  • Nature and the outdoors
  • Open spaces and walking trails
  • Learning about and experiencing local woods, waterways, and wildlife
  • All-season group walks/hikes
  • Educational events related to ecology, the environment and farming
  • Forest bathing
  • Socializing outdoors
  • Family-friendly outdoor activities

We intend to post SLT programs and events here that would be of interest to MeetUp members. Many of our programs are free, but a ticket fee may be associated with registering for certain events.

By joining this group, you are not obligated to donate time or money to SLT. SLT is a 501(c)3 organization, so if you visit our preserves or participate in our programs, supporting the cause is entirely up to you, and much appreciated by us!
