This protects 171 acres of diverse and highly ranked habitat along the Pine River, in Ossipee. This includes the property’s extensive wetlands and upland forests that are home to a wide variety of wildlife.
The Munroe Preserve includes almost two miles of river frontage, 28 acres of wetlands, and abuts the 3,244-acre Pine River State Forest, thus adding to a magnificent wildlife corridor. According to Dr. Rick Van de Poll, the diversity of ecosystems on the preserve provide exceptional habitat for a large variety of plants and wildlife.
The land's Conservation Easement Holder is the Lakes Region Conservation Trust.
MMRG is grateful to be a part of permanently preserving the Munroe Preserve’s spectacular habitat and making it available for public benefit and enjoyment.
