Cataclysmic events shaped the ancient mountains and valleys of the Berkshires. Post-glacial forests and wild animals have come and gone. Sheffield is notable for its rich farmland and vibrant farms. Why is Sheffield an ecological treasure? What does the future look like for wild nature, for farms, for ecological integrity?

Greetings by Will Conklin, Executive Director of Greenagers; Nancy Elle Smith, former Executive Director of Sweet Water Trust and a founder of the Sheffield Land Trust.; Kathy Orlando, ED of Land Protection, Sheffield Land Trust; Rene Wendell, Land Steward, The Nature Conservancy.
