Thanks to a generous grant, Allens Pond is hosting a free "Nature Discovery & STEAM" program series through autumn! Next programs start in October.

This past year has come with a lot of challenges. Nevertheless, exciting initiatives have taken place at Great Neck Wildlife Sanctuary while a portion of the property has remained temporarily closed to the public.

A lot has happened since Mass Audubon acquired the former Sacred Hearts property in summer 2019! We've made great progress in restoring these 110 acres to their natural, wild state.

We are thrilled to announce that the $2.6 million goal was met to protect the Sacred Hearts property! Our offer was officially accepted on February 14, and we're excited to be on our way to purchasing 110 acres to expand Great Neck Wildlife Sanctuary.
