Patch Hill Environmental Field Station

    In 2018, through the generosity of dedicated conservation donors, GWLT acquired the peninsula in Patch Reservoir and field house at 30 Breeze Drive. 

    In collaboration with Worcester State University, the site is used by students from the Department of Earth, Environment & Physics as a place for research and fieldwork.

    To help support GWLT’s mission to preserve & protect open space in the greater Worcester area, the space is also available to rent as a private meeting space for retreats, weddings, get-togethers, or any occasion that benefits from the beautiful natural setting.
