Removing remnant agricultural features would allow water to flow naturally through the site again, allowing expansion of more valuable salt marsh habitats and promoting greater biodiversity.

With our first-ever habitat management grant, the Coalition will continue the work of thinning the vegetation to restore grasslands and protect island residents.

Purchased land and conservation restrictions around Slocums River will allow salt marshes to move as sea levels rise.

The Coalition has protected a 49.2-acre forested property located adjacent to residential development between Route 6 and I-195 along cold-water stream Bread and Cheese Brook.

New Bedford Conservation Agent Chance Perks explains in a video what water protection improvements are happening at the Buttonwood Park Zoo.

A national program that recognizes land conservation organizations has renewed the Buzzards Bay Coalition’s accreditation.

The Buzzards Bay Coalition’s long-time director of land protection, Allen Decker, has retired after more than two decades with the organization. We look back on what drove him to do the work and the legacy he has left here.

Last month, the Buzzards Bay Coalition purchased a 650+-acre corridor of land surrounding the Agawam River, an 11-mile waterway that flows from Plymouth’s Halfway Pond through cranberry bogs and forests, joining the Wankinco River to form the Wareham River and empty into Buzzards Bay.

This first-ever project of its kind in Rochester will bring back a rare Atlantic White Cedar swamp.
