In Ellsworth
In 2010, Frenchman Bay Conservancy collaborated with the City of Ellsworth, the Trust for Public Land, and the Forest Society of Maine in order to protect Branch Lake. Branch Lake is the singular source of drinking water for Ellsworth, eastern Maine’s largest coastal city. The lake also serves as a source of timber harvesting and public recreation. The City of Ellsworth and FBC plan to develop hiking trails in the future.
A generous grant from Land for Maine’s Future helped preserve Branch Lake.
