• ConsCom approves Zoo New England grant application, though cites lack of review (carlislemosquito.org) — Local conservation leaders have approved Zoo New England’s rushed grant application for habitat work at Foss Farm, the 57-acre parcel along the Concord River and Great Meadows. While the $44,000 proposal could boost turtle and rare plant habitat, commissioners and users insist that gardeners, trail groups, farmers, and the pony club must help reshape details before any work begins in 2026.
