Conservation Commission
Mission Statement
Our Town of Wentworth is located in a beautiful valley, rich in natural resources, forming a diverse landscape of forests, mountains, ponds, rivers and meadows. The mission of the Wentworth Conservation Commission is to identify and protect our natural resources and open spaces with an emphasis on maintaining clean water and watershed resources. We will manage the Wentworth Town Forest to encourage wise and sustainable forest stewardship, protect wildlife habitat, improve recreational access, and provide natural resource education. We will strive to help preserve the rural character of Wentworth and encourage our townsfolk to enjoy nature and work together in maintaining the beautiful surroundings in which we are so fortunate to live.
Town Forest Location
The Wentworth Town Forest is located on the west side of Buffalo Hill Road, just north of Turner Road, across from the first flood control dam.
