Nature Conservancy Expands Boquet River Nature Preserve

The Nature Conservancy bought 10 acres adjacent to its Boquet River Nature Preserve last week, which will allow the group to build a new trailhead and path connecting to the interior trail network. The deal also included an arrangement for the nonprofit Makers Guild, Inc. to buy an old grocery store building in Willsboro; the space will become a community arts center with a focus on the environment.
