The Valentine Farm property, including a house, was given to the Mahoosuc Land Trust from a local resident. This property became the headquarters of the Mahoosuc Land Trust in 2016.
Valentine Farm’s universally accessible trail has two 0.6-mile loops, for a total of 1.2 miles to explore. One loop brings you right down to the Androscoggin River, a great place to view birds, fish, and other wildlife.
While at the Farm, you can also spend time in the Habitat for All Garden, which is a lush garden created for pollinators and birds in particular, and you can enjoy seeing a variety of plants and flowers while listening to the birds.
