About This Event

Each year, the Piscataquis County Soil and Water Conservation District (PCSWCD) hosts a Volunteer workday at each of the public lands they manage. The Law Farm Nature Trails located off Lee Cemetery road in Dover-Foxcroft and the Williamsburg Forest in Williamsburg are both properties that were donated to PCSWCD and are maintained by dedicated staff, board members and volunteers from the community. Each year, we see steady growth in numbers of visitors with the amount of people exploring outdoor recreation. With the increase of usage on our trail systems, we are looking for volunteers to help support our needs. Are you interested in spending more time outside or working on your favorite local trail system? Read on!

The Law Farm Nature Trails provide a chance for visitors to learn about how planning and maintaining a community forest can have everlasting positive effects on a variety of important factors such as ecosystem biodiversity, the health of our residents, and access to safe public lands for outdoor recreation. Through the 115-acre Law Farm, the PCSWCD provides unique recreational and educational opportunities in Piscataquis County and a community space for active learning. The 1.1-mile trail system winds through forested wetlands, agroforestry demonstration areas and a Northern white cedar wetland. The Law Farm is a great place to take a walk in the woods, enjoy a picnic with family, check out and learn about the wide variety of native tree species planted at the forest or pollinator garden, snowshoe, cross country ski, bird and wildlife watch, bring youth groups for outdoor nature experiences and much more.

The Law Farm has an active forest management plan, along with being a registered Maine Tree Farm and listed on Mainetrailfinder.com, AllTrails.com and registered with geocaching.com. This property is smoke-free as recognized by Bangor Public Health and Community Services.

PCSWCD’s mission is to build resilient, sustainable farms and forests through education, technical services, demonstration and stewardship. Do you want to play an active role in our mission? Can you lend a hand or two? Our volunteers are vital to keeping our mission and vision alive. Mark your calendars! The Law Farm Nature Trails Volunteer Work Day will be June 10th, 8-12pm with a rain date of June 17th. If you are interested in joining the other dedicated, generous stewards that volunteer their time and talent to PCSWCD this summer, please contact Executive Director Sarah Robinson, at sarah.robinson@piscataquisswcd.org or (207) 564-2321 x3.
