Conserving and caring for the

since 1987

Our work in the watershed

Georges River Land Trust conserves and cares for land in the
St. George River watershed for ecological and community wellbeing.

Since our founding in 1987, we have conserved over 5,600 acres of land
from Montville to Cushing. We conserve wildlife habitat and vital ecosystems, as well as farms to protect foodways.

We manage 80+ miles of multi-use trails and 24 public preserves, where we strive to connect community members to nature, support outdoor recreation, and provide opportunities for environmental education.

Conservation happens through community.

Together, with support from our members, we protect wildlife habitat, create public access, and expand nature-based education in the watershed.

Langlais Art Preserve

Conserved by Georges River Land Trust since 2017, the Langlais Art Preserve is a 90-acre nature preserve in Cushing, Maine with a 10-acre art environment at its heart. 

The Langlais Art Preserve encompasses the former homestead of Maine-born artist Bernard Langlais and his wife Helen Friend Langlais. Dotting the landscape are more than a dozen of Langlais’s large-scale wooden sculptures, remnants of the expansive outdoor art environment he created here from 1966 to 1977.  

Today, a 1/4-mile ADA-accessible path provides a route through the art environment, and our 2 1/2-mile Woodland Trail traverses the forest beyond. 

Here, our trails and programs bring people of all ages closer to nature through art.
