Conservation Stewardship Programs
Restoring our Conservation Land
Holly Hill Farm is situated on pristine conservation land. While this land is privately owned and has been protected from development by the White family, it is nonetheless in need of restoration due to the constant threat of invasive plant species that threaten the biodiversity of the land.
Our conservation volunteers work to remove invasive plants, restore native plants, and ensure that the land can support a healthy biodiversity of plants, insects, birds and other wildlife.
Teen volunteers can participate in this program in exchange for community service credits required by schools or other groups. We also have year-round opportunities for adult volunteers, either individually or in groups, such as company outings, church groups or clubs.

Native Meadow
We are working on introducing a 'native meadow' to better support at-risk insects such as the Monarch butterfly and the Golden Northern Bumble Bee. Our hope is to have a 1/2 acre meadow created by autumn of 2022.
Aid for Birds
Our conservation programs aid birds by increasing the health of the land upon which they rely. In 2020, we installed a kestrel nesting box near our native meadow project and we are ramping up the planting of beneficial and native plants.
Endangered Wildflowers
Half of the species listed as endangered or threatened in Massachusetts are plants. We work to re-introduce healthy biodiversity, including native wildflowers and other plants.
