I wanted to follow up with some GOOD NEWS! We saw neighbors during a walk around the block, they asked about the land for sale and we told them what was up, his Mom just passed away and was a big environmentalist so he used his inheritance to buy the land to honor her memory. And their plan is to keep the land open and perhaps turn it into a park! So you never know, just put positive energy out there and you never know what's going to happen. ThanksEric

As many of you know this has been an amazing spot for Bobolinks, Meadowlarks, and Savannah Sparrows to breed. We are managing some of our land contiguous to this for bird breeding and pollinator habitat, I would love to see this adjacent property purchased and maintained for this as well. https://warrenhomes.idxbroker.com/idx/details/listing/d507/402530/Ithaca-0-Nelson-Road-NY-14850 Ideally this would be a candidate for the Finger Lakes Land Trust, I'm going to send them a note. If anyone has other ideas about how to preserve this treasure, please let me know.
