Writing the Land: Northeast Poetry Anthology
"Writing the Land: Northeast" is an anthology of 11 land trusts and 40 poets who wrote poems inspired by their adopted lands. Three of Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust's unique conserved lands are captured by the words of three poets. Foreword by Tom Butler. Learn more about the Writing the Land project here.
Words from the editor and former Mount Grace board member, Lis McLoughlin:
“Writing the Land is an attempt to honor nature and our relationship with it in a way that is as equitable and transparent as it is deep and entangled. We intend to be as inclusive—to humans and places—as we hope the mantle of protection that land trusts offer can be. Our work will never be complete but gains strength, depth, beauty, and energy in a multitude of voices.”

Forest Stewardship: Case Studies and Lessons
This report profiles Mount Grace’s forest stewardship activities. Mount Grace has been an early proponent among land trusts in New England of active management of conservation properties. The report, commissioned by the Southern New England Forestry Consortium, uses three case studies to explore the evolution of Mount Grace’s flexible forestry philosophy, its relations with landowners and foresters, and some of the challenges inherent in stewarding forests.
A hard copy of the handbook is available for $5 plus $2 for shipping and handling. You may also download a free pdf of the handbook below.
