The Emerson Brook Forest Sustainability Project. Celebrate the diversity and interconnectedness of life.

The Sustainability Project Inc. incorporated on March 21, 2000 is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization promoting a love of nature, environmental stewardship, caring communities and ways of living that deepen our understanding of the interconnected web of life.  Our guiding principle is that diversity, inclusion and compassion are fundamental to the long-term well-being of our planet and its inhabitants.

October 18, 2008, TSP reached a milestone at our Emerson Brook Forest Center when Jill Robinson wheeled through our newly created edible forest garden and joined in a natural history tour along our 350 feet of trails. Please make a plan to visit our wheelchair accessible edible forest gardens and interpretive trails in the Spring once the snow has melted.
