weston forest and trail association
The Weston Forest and Trail Association is a volunteer organization responsible for working with land owners to encourage land conservation or land development consistent with Weston's rural character, and for stewardship of existing conservation land. WFT has helped to build and supports the maintenance of approximately one hundred miles of trails. The Association also sponsors trail walks and activities to encourage Weston residents to use and become more familiar with the more than 2000 acres of conservation land in town.

support land conservation
Weston Forest and Trail is supported by membership dues and by gifts to our operating and our endowment fund. Many land owners have also supported our cause by giving land or conservation restrictions to the association.

We encourage all residents who appreciate the rural character of Weston to become members and to consider gifts to our operating and endowment funds.

We also encourage landowners who would like to lean more about the benefits of land conservation to contact us.
