Description
The Cohasset Conservation Trust is a volunteer, non-profit organization that works to preserve areas of ecological importance, promote public interest in conservation and smart development, and preserve properties of historic interest or unusual beauty. The organization was founded in the late 1960s after a group of Cohasset residents worked to save Bassing Beach from imminent development. The Trust recognizes the need for development but aims to preserve natural assets, open spaces, and wildlife habitats for future generations.
