We are pleased to announce the protection in perpetuity of a 13- hectare property in the municipality of Orford.

We warmly thank the project’s initiators, donors, and Mr. Collins who made a generous ecogift. Together, they chose to make a positive difference in protecting our forests and their biodiversity. We have an exceptional community that is truly committed to protecting the natural environment” said Mélanie Lelièvre, Executive Director at Appalachian Corridor.
