About Us
Wildlands and Woodlands refers to both the vision and the growing network of groups and individuals seeking to achieve it.
Although hundreds, if not thousands, of people across the region are helping to realize the vision, there are particular people and organizations leading W&W activities. Each activity, whether it be land protection, an author lecture, or citizen science project, is intended to help us double the pace of forest conservation in New England by 2060:

100-mile Wilderness, ME
In an effort to help protect and enhance the integrity of the wild brook trout fishery on its Maine property, the Appalachian Mountain Club has been working with The Nature Conservancy, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service and Trout Unlimited to remove culverts or improve several stream crossings to enhance passage for wild brook trout in Maine’s 100-Mile Wilderness region. This is a pilot project of the Keeping Maine's Forests initiative, of which AMC is a partner.
