FAYETTE The Kennebec Land Trust intends to buy and permanently conserve 120 acres of land in Fayette, hoping to complete the $250,000 purchase by the end of the year.
The land, according to the organization’s website, includes “a ridgeline just above Echo Lake and a mature hardwood-conifer woodland adjacent to Hales Brook.”
The property is currently owned by Jean Hewett and has been in the Hewett family for several generations. Ron Hewett, Jean’s son, said the family now has to sell the land.
