Midsummer Party for Conservation

Thank you to everyone who made the 2026 Midsummer Party for Conservation an great success.

Together, our community is accelerating the pace of conservation across Northwest Connecticut and helping make the largest expansion of public access in NCLC’s history possible. Support from this year’s event will help open four new public nature preserves totaling more than 1,100 acres, creating new opportunities for people to experience forests, rivers, and scenic landscapes for generations to come.

Whether you joined us this year or are learning about the event for the first time, we hope you’ll be part of next year’s celebration. Every ticket, sponsorship, and donation helps protect the places that make this region extraordinary while expanding access to nature for everyone.
