We are thrilled and honored to announce that Writing the Land, a collaboration between poets and protected lands, has featured our organization in their next edition Writing the Land: Maine.
Writing the Land: Maine is an anthology of 13 land trusts and 27 poets who wrote poems inspired by their adopted lands throughout Maine. Information about the land trusts and lands open to the public is included within each chapter as well as the poems. Our poems feature Reversing Falls Preserve in Pembroke written by Valerie Lawson. Preview the book here.
Proceeds from the book sales purchased through DCC will support the conservation and public access of DCC’s preserves. Books orders have been submitted if you would like to order a book, please email: cathy@downeastcoastalconservancy.org.
Writing the Land is also hosting a book launch on November 5th at 2pm. The book launch will feature readings from the poets and information from each land trust. Advanced registration is required and space is limited.
Please register here if you would like to attend the book launch.
