Land Owned by the Conservators

Thanks to generous donations of land by several Newton property owners, the Conservators own three open space parcels.

In addition, we hold legally enforceable conservation restrictions on many other pieces of open space.

If you are considering donating land or a conservation easement to the Conservators, please contact us. More information on how we can work with you to protect land can be found on this page.
