Earth Day 2026: Stories From the Land

April 22nd is Earth Day. For many of us in rural Maine, the earth is part of our everyday life, shaping our work, livelihoods, hobbies, and communities. We asked members of our community how they interact with the land in their daily lives, and what it means to them.

We hope these stories give you a moment to reflect on how the Earth shows up in your daily life through your work, your routines, and your home. 🏡
