What Is The Last Green Valley?

Welcome to The Last Green Valley

The Last Green Valley is green by day and dark by night. We are a National Heritage Corridor with a rich history in a surprisingly rural landscape. With 84% forest and farm, we are the last swath of dark night sky in the coastal sprawl between Boston and Washington DC.

The Last Green Valley, Inc. (TLGV) works for you in the National Heritage Corridor. Together, we can care for it, enjoy it and pass it on!

Yesterday we celebrated the 30th Anniversary of The Last Green Valley National Heritage Corridor. We were thrilled to host our many volunteers and supporters at Allen Hill Farm  where the Langevin family treated us to wagon rides down to the beautiful Quinebaug River. The heritage corridor is essentially a national park we all get to live in and it was created because a dedicated group of local volunteers worked six years to convince congress this place was incredible. Those volunteers started a nonprofit right after the designation and we continue to rely on our incredible volunteers to ensure it stays incredible! Thank you to all who celebrated with us. Here’s to 30 more years!
