Vegetation Management at Piscassic Greenway

Vegetation management has begun at Piscassic Greenway off the Byrne Trail, which you may noticed from the caution tape and flagging. 
 
What is vegetation management? It is a forest management practice that creates wildlife habitat openings for ground and shrub nesting birds and provides flowers and seeds pollinators insects and animals. 
 
This is an important strategy to help SELT’s fee lands become more resilient to climate change and create early successional habitat for declining wildlife populations.

Birch Hill Road Parking Lot, Cabin Trail, and Birch Ridge Cabin CLOSED Temporarily for Trail Construction

Starting today, at Birch Ridge Community Forest in New Durham, the parking lot at Birch Hill Road, the Cabin Trail that leads from the lot, and the Birch Ridge cabin are all temporarily closed. For the next four to six weeks, SELT and Snowhawk LLC will be installing an all-persons trail that will start at the Birch Hill entrance and run to the cabin (between 3,600 and 4,000 feet in length). Please no roadside parking as there will be trucks driving in and out.  To access Birch Ridge Community Forest you can still use the parking areas at Brienne Road and Merrymeeting Road. Thank you.
