MVLT Founders Preserve consists of 107 acres and has some of the hilliest terrain found in Lincoln County. Combined with the 320-acre Quarry Hill Preserve, owned by the Town of Waldoboro, it forms a wildlife corridor of more than 400 acres that supports an abundance of species with its diverse habitat.
THANK YOU
We want to add ours to the many expressions of gratitude for the workers on the front lines of the coronavirus response.
Waldoboro Wanderings Waldoboro's Greatest Disappointment
Our current health struggle with the coronavirus is frightening to many, because of its deadly potential, and annoying to others – avoiding close contacts with people, washing hands for 20 seconds, and having to stay at home for long periods of time.

From the Legislature: A Quick Summary of Maine’s COVID-19 Response Law
Under extraordinary circumstances, leaders of the Maine State Legislature came together, working tirelessly throughout the March 14-15 weekend, and reached agreement on a package of new laws to address the immediate needs of state government in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Tales & Tails
“How many rolls did you get?” Ollie asked Opie as I entered the barn.
Thrifty Good Food “Hunker-Down Time -down-timeâ€
Snowstorms and even blizzards in early spring that make you stick close to the hearth, are not unknown in Maine. The current one, created by a rogue virus and constant alarming news updates, is different. There are no swirling white flakes. The roads and sidewalks are not in need of shoveling. It took a little longer to arrive in Maine, but suddenly our world has become conducive to staying close to the hearth.
Backyard Wildlife Oasis of calm
In times of heightened stress, nature offers us a balm for our anxiety. Spending time outside is always restorative, but it seems especially critical now.
From the Legislature: Too Serious for a Piecemeal Approach
Yesterday, the Maine House of Representatives and the Maine Senate voted to confer emergency powers to the governor. While we have always had a strong commitment to local control, the coronavirus crisis has risen to the occasion for emergency powers to be granted on a centralized basis.
HELP US HELP YOU
As the coronavirus turns life in Lincoln County upside down for the foreseeable future, the staff of The Lincoln County News is working to bring residents reliable and up-to-date information about the virus and the disease it causes, COVID-19.
Help First Responders Take Precautions
Lincoln County Communications/911, in conjunction with all public safety agencies that respond to Lincoln County, is taking measures to ensure the safety of our county’s residents and the first responder community.
Take These COVID-19 Recommendations Seriously
We find ourselves dealing with an unprecedented health crisis. While plans are changing rapidly, the most important and consistent part of the plan is social distancing. COVID-19 is in our community, so we want to remind folks that we can all help by promoting social distancing.
Backyard Wildlife Suet
If you want to increase the number of birds that visit your backyard, consider putting out suet cakes. Suet is a high-energy food source made from beef fat. Suet cakes or homemade batches attract a wide variety of birds, including woodpeckers, chickadees, titmice, blue jays, nuthatches, and wrens. Cardinals, catbirds, and some warblers will also occasionally visit a suet feeder.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT STILL WORKS
As the president spreads misinformation about the coronavirus and his likely opponent has his latest juvenile outburst, we can all take some heart in our ability to participate in one government that still works: local government.
