About this non-profit:

Visionaries will take viewers to the an area overflowing with wildlife and natural beauty to meet the people who have created a model of conservation that will inspire communities across the country to band together to preserve the part of their community they cherish most. We will discover how a small, but well organized, group of committed people overcame seemingly insurmountable obstacles to preserve Maine’s beautiful and productive forests, lakes, and streams in the northeastern corner of America and a community that has long been a destination for outdoor recreation. It is a story of triumph, but it is also an unfolding saga that is still in the midst of a courageous struggle to preserve the last, but most important parcel of land, the 22,000 acres that surrounds the village of Grand Lake Stream.
