The Last Green Valley AND the Connecticut River Valley create this large protected open space region between Nyorkton (the megapolis of New York and Boston). Many folks, working with many organizations, continue this effort. Please support your local land trusts!

Just to clarify this whole area is not open space. There are many land trust parcels Town parcels and State Properties worth visiting though

It's one of the nicest things about CT too. I love, hiking and running in our green spaces. Brings me back to life after a rough day.

Yep. It’s an important biodiversity island and needs to be treated that way.
