Its National Trails Day. What better way then join Native Forest Network (NFN) on an organized bushwack to one of Maine’s last remaining old growth stands.

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not. (Dr. Seuss The Lorax)

The trees are 200+ years old. Soaring white pines, cedars, birch, maple, hemlock and spruce bank Little Wilson Stream in Elliotsville. The sight isn’t too far from the Appalachian Trail and is a must see for any nature enthusiast. YOU WON”T BE DISAPPOINTED

Hey…but guess what. Plum Creek is planning on cutting this 220 acre stand this summer. So the time is now to come visit these trees before they hit the chopping block.

Meet 11am. June 7th at the Monson General Store on Rt. 15/6 just south of Greenville and just north of Guilford.

Get ready to see with your own eyes, Plum Creek’s “stewardship” and “neighborly” actions. Come to the Great North Woods….experience it while its still great!
