The Times Argus reports that "two families donated conservation easements to the Vermont Land Trust last month, adding nearly 170 acres of land to more than 2,000 acres already conserved by other Marshfield landowners." According to Mark McEathron, the central Vermont director of the Vermont Land Trust, "Marshfield has benefited by an amazing string of generous acts by landowners in the last few months." He continued, "First was the purchase of the 620-acre Stranahan property at a hugely discounted price, which created the new Stranahan Memorial Town Forest. Now two more (families) have stepped forward to preserve beautiful pieces of land in active farm and forestry use."
