Voices of the Land Podcast

Please click here for the full library of Westerly Land Trust’s Voices of the Land podcast.

This podcast was conceived of by WLT’s first TerraCorps service member, Joseph Barnes, to stay connected with our community during the height of the pandemic. Our second TerraCorps service member, Marc Doherty, brought Voices of the Land into it’s second season.

Today, now that things have returned to “normal”, Voices of the Land has evolved from a podcast into a monthly in-person discussion series led by our favorite scientists and stewards. Visit our calendar for upcoming Voices of the Land events.

WLT conserves open space, revitalizes culturally significant properties and provides environmental programs for the enduring benefit of our community.

When @westerlylandtrust and @wildrootsplay.ri come together, learning turns into a magical adventure!✨

At our Prints, Paths, and Play program students discovered animal tracks and signs🐾, then hiked over to @wildrootsplay.ri for a cozy afternoon of play and tea. So grateful for a partnership that keeps curiosity and community thriving! 💚🌳

November brings shorter, colder days, but also more time to pause and reflect on the year coming to a close. Soon, we’ll all be in full holiday mode, moving a mile a minute. But until then, allow yourself space to sit and contemplate. How have you progressed toward your personal goals in 2025? What remains on your to-do list before the year ends? 🍂

🌳At the Westerly Land Trust, we find that these internal conversations are best had outdoors, surrounded by nature. Big things feel more achievable when you take notice of the everyday miracles around you.

💚In October, the world lost a conservation giant, Dr. Jane Goodall. As we slide headfirst into the holiday hustle, may Dr. Goodall’s words and outlook stay with you:

“People say to me so often, ‘Jane how can you be so peaceful when everywhere around you people want books signed, people are asking these questions and yet you seem peaceful,’ and I always answer that it is the peace of the forest that I carry inside.”

“All the trees are losing their leaves, and not a single one of them is worried.” - Donald Miller

Take a lesson from the trees: slow down, release what no longer serves you, and trust that growth will come again. 🍂
