Protect the Last High-Elevation Lands on Mt. Kearsarge
For more than 100 years, the Forest Society and its partners have safeguarded nearly 9,500 acres on Mt. Kearsarge—beginning with the Rollins Memorial Park tract in 1918 and continuing with thousands of acres of vital forest and wildlife habitat. Now, we have a unique opportunity to conserve 230 acres of the final large private parcels near the summit. This land includes rare high-elevation habitat ranked as Tier 1 by the NH Wildlife Action Plan, frontage along Kearsarge Mountain Road, and stunning panoramic views cherished by hikers and nature lovers. To complete the acquisition, we must reach a critical fundraising goal by October 1.

Keep Our Forests Healthy, Whole, and Here — Support the Annual Fund Today
New Hampshire’s forests are vital — they support wildlife, clean our air and water, cool our communities, and inspire us to explore. They also sustain our economy, well-being, and sense of place.
With your help, we can conserve critical lands, care for trails and conserved properties, connect people to nature through education and recreation, and advocate for policies that protect what makes our state special.
In uncertain times, your Annual Fund support ensures we can do all this — and more — with strength and stability.
