VOICES FROM THE LAND
STORIES THAT KEEP NATURE WILD
STORIES THAT KEEP NATURE WILD
Across New Brunswick, people have chosen to protect the lands they love—wooded trails where children played, quiet hillsides alive with rare wildflowers, shorelines where loons still call. These are not just acres; they’re memories, identity, and a gift to the future.
Here, you’ll meet the landholders, families, and community members who decided that their special places should remain wild, safe from development, and cared for—forever.
Their generosity is shaping the New Brunswick we will pass on, and their stories remind us that protecting nature is not just about land. It’s about love, belonging, and the hope that future generations will walk these same paths and feel the same wonder.
