About Us

The Land Preservation Society, Inc. is a non-profit, independent conservation group

chartered in 1970 by the State of Massachusetts. We are dedicated to conserving

woodlands and wetlands for the protection of plant and animal species and the health

of the planet.

Our first purchase was funded by a loan from the Nature Conservancy in 1971,

and was one of many connected parcels we acquired that help protect wetlands

and Norton's water supply.
