Produced by Cassidy Motahari with support from the CLIF Bar Family Foundation, “Rewilding the Northeast” introduces the work and mission of Northeast Wilderness Trust.

Watch the film to get a virtual tour of Bramhall Wilderness Preserve in Bridgewater Hollow, Vermont. There, you’ll meet Northeast Wilderness Trust’s Executive Director Jon Leibowitz and Stewardship Director Shelby Perry. Jon and Shelby share with us the values of wilderness, for the many species that live in the forest as well as for the human spirit.

Next, you’ll take a walk through the forest of Babysitter Swamp in Jericho, Vermont with wildlife biologist and wilderness landowner Susan Morse of Keeping Track. Sue shares about the bears and other wildlife she studies on her land, and the unique ways that animals depend on old trees, ancient forests, and wild places to survive and thrive.
