| Lynnfield Woodlot |
We're delighted to announce that in partnership with the Town of Lynnfield, the Commonwealth, Ipswich River Watershed Association and many others, the 21-acre "Lynnfield Woodlot" property on Main Street (formerly referred to as Richardson Green) has been permanently protected. An important ecological and drinking water resource, this land will provide a gateway to trails on other conserved land in the future.Thank you to all who made this project possible!

| Annual Members Meeting |
Under clearing skies on May 19, Greenbelt gathered for our Annual Members Meeting to celebrate people and land conservation. We remembered Kent Wosepka, friend and Director who passed in 2021; welcomed new Directors Stephen Goeben and Bill Zola; and honored Susanna Colloredo-Mansfeld with the Al Creighton Conservation Award, Jan Klein with the Outstanding Volunteer Award, and Jerry Klima as a retiring Director. Greenbelt's 2021 conservation achievements - made possible by our Members - are featured in our Annual Report.
