BNRC, a nonprofit, charitable organization, formed in 1967 to help families and individuals protect and conserve lands throughout Berkshire County. Since then, BNRC has negotiated more than 300 conservation projects. We maintain reserves and trails throughout Berkshire County that are free and open to the public. BNRC is proud to have helped the families pictured on these pages, and many others, protect their lands in perpetuity. Our mission is to protect and preserve the natural beauty and ecological integrity of the Berkshires for public benefit and enjoyment.
