Mastic Beach Initiatives

Our Initiatives

Mastic Beach Conservancy is committed to partnering with local community groups and municipalities to combat the effects of climate change and sea-level rise as well as realize the potential of the 6 ½ miles of publicly accessible waterfront parkland through a variety of initiatives including:

main

Blue & Green Trails

The creation and completion of blue and green nature trails in and along the Mastic Beach waterfront, encouraging mobility, recreation, and educational opportunities for our community. 

main

Ecology & Arts Education

Community and youth education to nurture connection and understanding of the wetlands biodiversity, and increased access to parks and nature for local residents and the public at large.

main

Violet Cove

The development of an ecology and arts community center at Violet Cove. Design and architecture that draw inspiration from the area wetlands, with a focus on conservation and education.

main

Aquafarms

Kelp, oyster, and eelgrass seeding for the health of local waterways and community education is a top priority for our conservancy, and we’re laying then groundwork for a new aquafarm in Mastic Beach.

main

Forge River Watershed Sewer Project

The Forge River Watershed Sewer Project will ultimately connect nearly 2,000 homes to sewers in the project area. To efficiently manage the volume of access agreements that will need to be mailed out and executed for homeowners to connect, we are sending the access agreement packets to the property owners in three separate mailing groups.
