Connecticut Audubon Completes Conservation Plan Aimed at Protecting the 'Green Heart' of Fairfield County

Our Conservation Services staff has completed a major conservation and management plan for Aspetuck Land Trust, helping the organization balance conservation and recreation on its heavily-used Trout Brook Valley preserve.

Trout Brook Valley is one of the most important ecological features of Fairfield County. It forms the core of a 6,400-acre expanse that our conservation biologists have characterized as the “green heart” of the region.

The plan is the product of a year’s worth of work that we completed under contract to Aspetuck Land Trust.

We are issuing a news release about it today: “Aspetuck Land Trust Sets New Policies at Trout Brook Valley Preserve Following Study By Connecticut Audubon Society.”
