Kennebec Estuary Land Trust invites community members to participate in its online auction, which opens for bidding Tuesday, April 9. The auction features a wide assortment of items and experiences in the estuary and beyond, and all proceeds from the auction will directly support KELT’s programs and preserves. Bidding ends at 11:59 p.m. on May 12.
Land and Stewardship Director Andrew Morgan will immerse himself in an auction winner’s land to produce a beautiful and informative map of its natural communities.
