Peter Brace reports that a year after hiring Kitty Pochman as its first executive director and renowned naturalist E. Vernon Laux as property manager and resident naturalist, the Linda Loring Nature Foundation on Nantucket has launched its website at www.llnf.org.

Established in 1999 by Island resident Linda Loring, the Foundation owns 270 acres of natural habitat near Long Pond and “is dedicated to being stewards of the property and fostering learning that promotes environmental awareness.”
