The Kennebec Estuary Land Trust (KELT) is hosting a series of gatherings to close out the summer season and support the work of the land trust across the estuary. Join KELT staff, Board, and friends at upcoming events to sample the bounty produced in the Kennebec Estuary, support local businesses, and further KELT’s work to conserve and restore the natural places we all cherish.
On Friday, Sept. 1 between 4 and 6 p.m., kick off Labor Day weekend at the picturesque Sasanoa Brewing Company and Tarbox Farm on Westport Island for a happy hour and beer tasting with KELT! The brewery’s tasting room is a charming, casual outdoor space surrounded by organic farm fields, forest, and shoreline. Kid friendly and dog (on leash) friendly! With each ticket comes a 4-beer tasting flight of Sasanoa Brewery’s rustic coastal beers and a sampling of nibbles. KELT staff and Board will be on hand to join the merriment and share our vision to actively conserve the wild beauty of Westport and the Kennebec Estuary region. An optional add-on: At 3 p.m., join KELT staff for a walk on the recently protected Dunton Preserve at Meadow Pond. This new preserve was conserved in early 2022 and boasts 54-acres of woodland along the shores of the fresh water Meadow Pond, just a stone’s throw from the tasting room.

On Saturday, Sept. 9 at 2 to 4 p.m. join KELT to tour the facilities of a modern aquaculture farm, Eros Oysters, along the shores of coastal Georgetown. Eros specializes in farming Atlantic oysters in the cold, salty, and rich waters of Robinhood Cove. Get the inside glimpse of how these tasty bivalves grow from a seed to shucking-size! Each ticket comes with a tasting of 4-oysters and a 90-minute farm tour on the cove. KELT’s team will share how the land trust’s conservation and restoration programs support the dynamic natural systems producing the oysters we all enjoy!
