South Hero Land Trust
Growing Farms, Strengthening Community,
Working Together
Since 1997, South Hero Land Trust has dedicated itself to working within the community to protect and nurture our most important assets: the land, and the people who live, play, love, and grow on it.
There are many ways in which South Hero Land Trust does it's work: building strong community ties, forging partnerships with farmers, establishing critical links between consumers and farmers, geting kids and adults out onto the land, education about our natural world, school programs, and of course, land conservation. We hope you'll read more about our exciting work.

Annual Green-Up Day Clean-Up and BBQ a Huge Success!
Many thanks to the community volunteers who got out on the streets and shores of South Hero on Saturday for a town spring cleaning! South Hero Land Trust and friends had a great time cleaning up Whites Beach, and even more fun at our our annual Green-Up Day BBQ!
Mark Naud, Marco diCarlo, and their families grilled and served up fresh hot hamburgers and sausages from Canamak Farms, and Island Homemade Ice Cream donated delicious lemon Italian Ice for our hardworking volunteers. The sun was shining, the food was delicious, and with a little teamwork South Hero is now ready for walkers, runners, bikers, boaters, and swimmers to enjoy all summer!
We'll be posting photos soon, and hope you'll check back to see some great images from the day.
