The Gift of Old Point
In March of 2020, the Hartline sons and their families gifted the Old Point property in Lamoine to Maine Coast Heritage Trust to own and manage as a public preserve.
Tour a preserve, learn from a land steward, or enjoy calming coastal moments.
A Coastal Moment from East Penobscot Bay, Maine
As on most parts of the Maine coast, East Penobscot Bay has a patchwork of islands—some conserved, some not, all strikingly beautiful with a variety of shoreline, forest cover, anchorages and history. There’s a reason that the mid-coast area is considered one of the premier cruising grounds in the world.
Maine Heritage Newsletters
Twice a year, we publish three editions of the Maine Heritage newsletter. The Coast-wide edition highlights noteworthy land conservation projects throughout the state while the Midcoast and Downeast versions focus in on those respective regions.
MCHT Annual Reports
At the end of each year, we look back on the conservation successes donors made possible.
