Jean Chamberlin South Conservation Area

Located in the northwest corner of Haverhill, New Hampshire, the Chamberlin Conservation Area includes approximately 26 acres of undeveloped water frontage and open fields along the Ammonoosuc River. The Chamberlin family has been involved in farming and horticulture in the region for five generations and we were honored when they came to us in 2018 to help conserve their land. The primary purpose of the easement is to maintain or enhance water quality, wildlife habitat, and other ground and surface water resources including wetlands, upland buffers and riparian areas on the Conservation Area. The easement also protects agricultural uses and values.

The Conservation Area is part of a larger 115-acre occurrence of some of the highest quality grassland habitat in the state, which are supported by the Connecticut River corridor and mouth of the Ammonoosuc River.

In addition to this property, ACT also conserves a piece of the Chamberlins’ land just north in Bath, NH.
