  • Road to Restoration at Halfway Pond Upcoming Project Will Restore Sensitive Pond Shore Habitat, Halfway Improve Public Access, and Enhance Public Safety
    OCTOBER 2015 PROPOSED RESTORATION AREA Road to Restoration at Halfway Pond Upcoming project will restore sensitive pond shore habitat, Halfway improve public access, and enhance public safety. Pond Halfway Pond is one of the region’s natural treasures, and has been a focus of the Trust’s land pro- tection and stewardship efforts since our inception back in 1973. Through the generosity of multi- ple donors, we have assembled over 400 acres around the pond. Now known as the Halfway Pond Conservation Area, this landscape encompasses globally rare pine barrens habitat, varied topog- raphy, and extensive frontage on Halfway Pond, and connects with Myles Standish State Forest, at over 14,000 acres the largest contiguous assemblage of open space in southeastern Massachusetts. Our efforts to preserve more land around the pond continue, as exemplified by our July acqui- sition of a seven-acre parcel that nicely complements our existing holdings. In conjunction with our ongoing land protection efforts, we have from time to time pursued multiple initiatives for improving the quality of the area’s wildlife habitat. On several occasions over the past decade- plus, we collaborated with the Mass. DCR and The Nature Conservancy on controlled burns that included a portion of the Halfway Pond Conservation Area. We have also worked to stabilize the CONTINUED ON PAGE 6 Wildlands Trust works throughout southeastern Massachusetts to conserve and permanently protect native habitats, farmland, and lands of high ecologic and scenic value that serve to keep our communities healthy and our residents connected to the natural world.
