Apple Country Natural Climate Solutions Project

Harvard, Bolton, and Devens, MA

Linnean Solutions collaborated with a team of regenerative landscape designers, ecologists, environmental engineers, the towns of Harvard and Bolton, and the Devens Regional Enterprise Zone to identify opportunities for increasing community and ecosystem resilience through nature-based solutions in Harvard, Bolton, and Devens. Among other goals, the project identified best management practices for supporting the health and capacity of soils, agriculture, forests, wetlands, and floodplains to store carbon and provide resilience benefits, as well as identify opportunities to implement those best management practices at specific sites throughout the three communities.

The project’s soil assessments and best management practices with respect to soils—including how to expand their capacity to infiltrate stormwater and store carbon—draw on findings from the Massachusetts Healthy Soils Action Plan, which Linnean developed with Regenerative Design Group in 2020.
