Mission:

To identify and conserve Strafford’s natural resources, to educate the community about our natural heritage, and to foster local environmental stewardship.

​

Current Projects:  To alert the community to the ecological threats posed by invasive species in general and more immediately by the Emerald ash borer, an invasive insect recently discovered in Orange County which attacks and kills all species of ash tree.  To continue efforts to map and classify all the wetlands in Strafford and create an inventory of plant species found in each.   To develop a walking trail through the valley between the villages.  To correlate the SCC’s Open Space Plan with the new Town Plan.
